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 algebra equations and expressions?

expressions don't have an equal sign and equations do


How are equations and expression similar?

Equations are made from expressions.


Do equations and expressions have addition?

They can but don't have to.


How can you solve problems involving equivalent expressions?

In the same way that you would solve equations because equivalent expressions are in effect equations


Do algebraic expressions have equals signs?

no algebraic expressions do not have equal signs but equations do.


What are the solutions to -x squared plus 2x plus 4 and x-2?

These are two expressions, not equations. Expressions do not have solutions, only equations do. NB equations include the equals sign.


How are word problems with equations different from word problems with expressions?

It may be possible to solve equations. Expressions cannot be solved until they are converted, with additional information, into equations or inequalities which may have solutions.


Equations that contain rational expressions?

a rational function.


What are the similarities between equations and expressions?

Both have a value


What is the same about expressions and equations?

They both have numbers and symbols
