Think of an equal sign as meaning “the same as.” Some examples of equations are y = mx +b, \dfrac An equation will always contain an equal sign with an expression on each side.

equation: an equation is a mathematical statement that two expressions are equal.expression: groups of terms connected by addition and subtraction.term: a single number, or variables and numbers connected by multiplication.This number is called the coefficient of the variable. coefficient: Sometimes a variable is multiplied by a number.variables: variables are symbols that stand for an unknown quantity they are often represented with letters, like x, y, or z.Use Properties of Equality to Isolate Variables and Solve Algebraic Equationsįirst, let us define some important terminology:
