๐Ÿ“š Quick Study Guide

  • ๐Ÿ”ข What is a Variable? A variable is a symbol (usually a letter) that represents an unknown number. Think of it as a placeholder!
  • โž• Expressions with Variables: An algebraic expression contains numbers, variables, and operations (like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division). Example: $3 + x$
  • โž– Solving for Variables: To solve for a variable, you need to isolate it on one side of the equation. This means getting the variable alone! Example: If $x + 5 = 10$, then $x = 5$.
  • โž— Coefficients: The number multiplied by a variable is called a coefficient. In the expression $7y$, 7 is the coefficient.
  • ๐Ÿ’ก Tips: Always remember to perform the same operation on both sides of an equation to keep it balanced! And practice makes perfect!
