What is Expressions
Expressions
  You are familiar with the following
   type of numerical expressions:

                  12+6
                 3 (12)
               6 (3 + 2)
               15 - 4 (6)
What is a variable?
In the expression 12 + B, the letter “B”
              is a variable.

  A variable is a letter or symbol that
     represents an unknown value.
Algebraic Expressions
 When variables are used with other
 numbers, parentheses, or operations, they
 create an algebraic expression.

                a + 2
                 (a) (b)
              3m + 6n - 6
What are coefficients?
 A coefficient is the number multiplied
 by the variable in an algebraic
 expression.

    6m + 5                       6
 8r + 7m + 4                   8, 7
    14b - 8                      14
What is a term?
 A term is the name given to a number, a
 variable, or a number and a variable
 combined by multiplication or division.

          a + 2            a, 2

    3m + 6n - 6          3m, 6n, - 6
What are constants?
 A constant is a number that cannot
  change its value.

  In the expression: 5x + 7y - 2
  the constant is - 2.
