Best Answer

An equation consists of two expressions joined by an '=' sign. If there is only one variable, you can usually solve the equation (find the value of the variable that makes the equation true).

Example: 3x + 5 = 11: the solution is 2. (The techniques for finding the solution are a major part of algebra.)

Check that 3(2) +5 = 6+5 = 11.

Is linear algebra and linear equations the same?

Linear Algebra is a branch of mathematics that enables you to solve many linear equations at the same time. For example, if you had 15 lines (linear equations) and wanted to know if there was a point where they all intersected, you would use Linear Algebra to solve that question. Linear Algebra uses matrices to solve these large systems of equations.
