Algebra and Equations

A variable represents a value. Substitute known values carefully and use inverse operations to isolate an unknown.

Key ideas

  • variables
  • substitution
  • simplify expressions
  • one-step equations
  • patterns and rules

Worked example: if x=4, then 3x+2=14.

Common trap: 3x means 3 multiplied by x.

Key words

variable — symbol representing a value
expression — numbers/variables/operations without =
equation — statement that two expressions are equal
substitute — replace a variable with a value
coefficient — number multiplying a variable
How to use this drill: review the short notes when learning, then close them on later attempts and practise from memory. The rotating bank delays a full set repeat for 30 attempts on the same browser.
