In algebraic expressions is there a solution?

In many cases you can simplify an algebraic expression. You don't really "solve" them; an equation can be solved. An equation is a declaration that two expressions are equal, for example, x + 3 = 10.


Is 5x an algebraic expression?

yes, 5x is a expression. A expression in algebra does not contain a = sign. a = sign means its an equation. A algebraic equation is built out of expressions.


What are the two algebraic expressions set equal to each other called?

How do you solve algebraic expressions?

An equation or an inequality can be solved but an expression cannot be solved.


What makes up a math equation?

What is the difference between algebraic and numerical expressions?

Algebraic expressions use letters as variables to represent numbers. Ex. 5c-(2+x) x=2 c=12 Numerical expressions use numbers only. Ex. 12+(2-7)


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.


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.
