In this lesson, Mr. Schenkel introduces mathematical expressions, focusing on identifying whether they are linear or non-linear. He provides examples, such as the sum of a number and its multiple, products, and expressions involving reciprocals. The lesson covers the properties of linear expressions, emphasizing the role of exponents, and explores non-linear expressions with higher or negative exponents. The video concludes with a summary of key concepts and examples to reinforce understanding.
