a rational function.
They both have algebraic terms but an expression does not contain an equality sign whereas an equation does contain an equality sign
Equations are made from expressions.
Algebraic expressions can't be considered to be formulae or equations because they don't contain equality signs.
Expressions have to contain numbers and letters.

They can but don't have to.
In the same way that you would solve equations because equivalent expressions are in effect equations
no algebraic expressions do not have equal signs but equations do.
These are two expressions, not equations. Expressions do not have solutions, only equations do. NB equations include the equals sign.
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 always contain an
