Algebra - Writing mathematical phrases using letters to represent numbers.
Example: n+6=14
x-6=3
Variable - a letter that represents a number in an equation or expression
Example: a+11=20
Constant = the integer in an algebraic expression or equation
Example: 18+m=8
Expression -pattern -many answers
Example: 3x
Equation - only has one answer and an equal (=) sign
Example: 3x=9
Solving a One Step Equation:
1st Isolate the variable
2nd Cancel the constant using zero pair
3rd Balance - do it to other side
4th Verify to check
One Step Equations and Models
Solving a Two Step Equation
1st Isolate the variable
