What is Algebraic expression?

Algebraic expression

An algebraic expression in mathematics is an expression which is made up of variables as well as constants. Expressions are made up of terms. The

the basics of algebra taught us how to express an unknown value using alphabetical letters such as x, y, z,. These letters are called variables because their values can vary. An algebraic expression can be a combination of both variables as well as constants. Any value that is placed before and multiplied by a variable is a coefficient.

Examples of algebraic expressions are

5x-10y+3, 2x – 2, etc.

Algebraic expressions are represented with the help of unknown variables, constants and coefficients. The combination of these three terms is said to be an expression. It is to be noted that algebraic expressions have no sides or equal to sign. Some of its examples include

• 6x+8y-5
• x – 10
