What does it mean to simplify an expression?

To simplify an expression means to reduce it to its simplest form by combining like terms and performing operations. For example, $$2x + 3x = 5x$$ .

What is a polynomial?

A polynomial is an algebraic expression that consists of one or more terms, where each term includes a variable raised to a non-negative integer power. For example, $$2x^2 + 3x + 1$$ is a polynomial.

What is a linear expression?

A linear expression is an algebraic expression in which the highest power of the variable is one. For example, $$2x + 3$$ is a linear expression.

What is the purpose of parentheses in algebra?

Parentheses are used to indicate which operations should be performed first in an expression. For example, in $$(2 + 3) \times 4$$ , the addition inside the parentheses is performed before multiplication.

What is the distributive property?

The distributive property states that $$a(b + c) = ab + ac$$ . It allows you to multiply a single term by each term inside parentheses.

An equation is a mathematical statement that asserts the equality of two expressions, typically containing one or more variables. For example, $$2x + 3 = 7$$ is an equation.

What is a solution to an equation?

A solution to an equation is a value that makes the equation true when substituted for the variable. For example, the solution to $$2x + 3 = 7$$ is $$x = 2$$ .

What is a function in algebra?

A function is a relation that assigns exactly one output for each input. It can be represented as an equation, a graph, or a table. For example, $$f(x) = 2x + 1$$ is a function.
