Algebra is the use of letters and symbols to
            represent values and their relations,
            especially for solving equations.

            The combination of each letters and
            symbols are called “Algebraic Expressions”.
Here are the                     exponent/
            parts of an                      power/
            Expression.                      degree

            8x² is an example of algebraic expression.

            constant or
            numerical       variable or
            coefficient     literal
                            coefficient
Constants are symbols representing
            exact value like π and numbers. Constants
            are always written

                 An expression like b, a³ and xy has a
            constant of 1.
                 1 is not written in any expression. If an
            expression has no constant, it is understood
            the the constant is one.

Variables are used to represent
            unknown values. Variables are often
            represented by letters.

                 If an expression has no variable,
            therefore the expression is exact.

Exponents are seen at the top of a
            variable. Exponents in an expression can be
            like or unlike. They also show how many

            times the variable appears in an expression.
                 If a variable has no exponent it is
            understood that its exponent is one,
            therefore there is no need to write one on
            the top of a variable.
