Algebra is one of the oldest fields of math and is fundamental to understanding all things STEM related.
Recall that a variable is a placeholder, usually denoted with a letter, which represents an unknown quantity. Now it is time to learn how to solve for variables. We will examine equations to determine the value of a variable. The best way to learn is to jump in with some examples! Variable Constants A constant is a […]
In Algebra, and other fields of mathematics, a variable is a placeholder, which represents an unknown quantity. Variables are usually represented with a letter. At a simple level, you can think of them like containers that hold numbers we’re trying to figure out. Variables are powerful, essential tools in the math, science, and computing fields. But before […]
Order Precedence tells us the order in which we need to evaluate mathematical equations. It is also widely known as the order of operations. The Order of Operations is as follows: A commonly taught acronym is PEMDAS, or “Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally.” This stands for Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction. We will now […]
