Algebraic Expressions
An algebraic expression in mathematics is an expression which is made up of
variables and constants, along with algebraic operations (addition, subtraction,
etc.). Expressions are made up of terms. Expressions do not have equal signs (=).
Example:
3 x+ 7 y+ 128 x−2 y +7
Algebraic Equations
An algebraic equation can be defined as a mathematical statement in which two
expressions are set equal to each other. The algebraic equation usually consists of
a variable, coefficients and constants.
For example:
x + y=53 x−4 y=12
