• Instructions:
Differentiate expression from equation by giving a definition or citing examples.
Expression
- is a statement which contains one or more terms, numbers and variables, connected by the operational signs of addition and subtraction.
Examples:
[tex] \large\tt 1. \: 21x + y \\ \large\tt 2. \: 58 - xy \\ \large\tt 3. \: 100+ 6 \\ \large\tt 4. \: 86a - 3 \\ \large\tt 5. \: 69k + 1[/tex]
Equation
- is a mathematical statement shows that two or more expressions are equal, thus, containing expressions connected by the equal sign.
Examples:
[tex] \large\tt 1. \: 71x + 2 = 30 \\ \large\tt 2. \: 545 - y = 23\\ \large\tt 3. \: 100 - 1 = 99 \\ \large\tt 4. \: 12c - 3 = 12 \\ \large\tt 5. \: 962 + x = 25[/tex]
