Any expression (mathematical or otherwise) has meaning. Help us match the linear expression to the meaning options given. In some cases, more than one meaning may apply.
Learn how to combine like terms (with negative numbers and variables), including more complex problems involving the distributive property.
Wait, why are we using letters in math? How can an 'x' represent a number? What number is it? This tutorial is great if you're just beginning to delve into the world of variables and expressions.
Substitution_and_evaluating_expressions
Learn how to substitute (or "plug in") values for variables and evaluate algebraic expressions.
Writing_algebraic_expressions_introduction
Learn the basics of writing expressions with variables.
Overview_and_history_of_algebra
Did you realize that the word "algebra" comes from Arabic (just like "algorithm" and "al jazeera" and "Aladdin")? And what is so great about algebra anyway? This tutorial doesn't explore algebra so much as it introduces the history and ideas that underpin it.
Introduction_to_equivalent_algebraic_expressions
Learn to tell whether or not two algebraic expressions are equivalent by combining like terms and using the distributive property.
Evaluating_expressions_word_problems
Learn how to plug in values to evaluate real-world expressions.
Dependent_independent_variables
