What is the difference between simplifying and evaluating algebraic expressions?

Simplifying an expression is getting rid of any brackets or parentheses, performing as many operations as you can - including combining like terms.
To evaluate an expression you would substitute the numerical values of all the variables, carry out all the operations (addition, multiplication etc) in the expression to reach the answer - the numerical value of the expression.

How do you know if you will subtract or add in simplifying algebraic expressions?
Only like terms can be subtracted or added in algebraic expressions.
What is the process for evaluating expressions called?
An algebraic expression is a process for evaluating expressions. Replacing variables with numerals and following a standard order of operations is used for the process.
Evaluating and rewriting algebraic expressions involves?
It involves putting the expression in a solveable form.
Simplifying algebraic expressions?
2-9h+6-5n use h=3 and n=2
When evaluating algebraic expressions what is the order of operations?
BOMDAS Brackets (parenthesis), Of, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction

What is a process for evaluating expressions called?
Algebraic expressions can be simplified by combining together like terms but there are no solution because they don't contain equality signs
How do you solve 1.50p plus 2.50p plus 3p This is a simplifying algebraic expressions and add subtract integer problem?
It is: 1.50p+2.50p+3p = 7p when simplified
What is simplifying the expression?
Algebraic expressions contain alphabetic symbols as well as numbers. When an algebraic expression is simplified, an equivalent expression is found that is simpler than the original. This usually means that the simplified expression is smaller than the original. There is no standard procedure for simplifying all algebraic expressions because there are so many different kinds of expressions, but they can be grouped into three types: (a) those that can be simplified immediately without any preparation. (b) those that require preparation before being simplified. (c) those that cannot be simplified at all. <3 Tiffany ur welcome
Do algebraic expressions have equals signs?
no algebraic expressions do not have equal signs but equations do.
How do you classify algebraic expressions?
Algebraic expressions are terms that do not include an equality sign
How are algebraic expressions and equations alike?
Algebraic expressions are the written relations of or between variables. For example, x2, 1/x, and x + y + z are all algebraic expressions. Algebraic equations are simply algebraic expressions that equate to something. For example, x2 = 4, 1/x = y, and x + y + z = 42 are all algebraic equations. In general, one differentiates algebraic expressions from exponential, trigonometric, hyperbolic, and logarithmic expressions by requiring algebraic expressions to be confined to polynomial expressions. I've added a link regarding polynomials below.
What is the difference between a numerical expression and a algebraic expression?
Numerical expressions solely include numbers, while algebraic expressions may contain a variable like x. An example of a numerical expression is 1+2 and an example of an algebraic expression is 2x+3y=0.
