Title: What is the difference between an equation and an expression? Include an example of each.? Post by: mickalawam on Jan 12, 2013 equation has equal sign and has left and right sides eg. y^2+y=4
espression is just a group of monomials with no equal sign eg . y^2+4 Title: What is the difference between an equation and an expression? Include an example of each.? Post by: tonio on Jan 12, 2013 An expression is basically
2x^2 + 2x + 2 An EQUATION, has an equality in it. 2x + 3= 2 the = sign makes it an equation. If there is no = sign, it's just an expression For instance 2x + 3 alone is an expression, but if you add the = 2, it becomes an equation. Title: What is the difference between an equation and an expression? Include an example of each.? Post by: leonjoi on Jan 12, 2013 Equation equals something eg. Y=x^2 + 2
Expression is just a statement such as 2+2 Title: What is the difference between an equation and an expression? Include an example of each.? Post by: Leonium on Jan 12, 2013 An expression involves variables and terms, but one can NOT solve for a variable in an expression.
Example of an expression is x+3 An equation involves an equal sign and thus one can solve for a variable in an equation. Example of an equation is: x+3 = 6 See the difference. Very important concept to grasp, but it is very simple... Title: What is the difference between an equation and an expression? Include an example of each.?
