What is an equation involving two or more variables?

An equation with two or more variables is called a polynomial. It can also be a literal equation.


How does a function differ from an equation?

A function is a rule to calculate a variable, based on one or more other variables. It may be written as an equation, but unlike a generic equation, in a function, for every value of the input variables, it may ONLY have ONE result.


When an equation has two variables there is a number of values that the two variables could have?

If an equation has two variables, we'll call them (x,y), the variables can be any value as long as both sides of the equation have the same result. If the equation was x = y, then the variables could be (1,1), (2,2), (3,3),etc...


What does it mean for a ordered pair to be a solution to a linear equation?

An ordered pair is a solution only of a linear equation in two variables - not any linear equation. Often the variables are denoted by x and y. If the first of the ordered pair is substituted for x in the equation, and the second for y, then the equation represents a true statement.


Why do you isolate variables for math?

You isolate variables in math because the point of an equation is to solve for the variables. By isolating the variables you have learned what that variable stands for and thus solved the equation.
