Algebra is in fact used in every day life, believe it or not.

For example, you need to buy gas and lunch but you only have $30. You know you can get lunch for $5 and you know that gas costs $2.50/gallon, but you need to know how many gallons of gas you can buy or $5 + $2.50x = $30. So, you calculate $30 - $5 = $25 / $2.50 = 10 gallons of gas.
