2-7 Variables and Algebraic Expressions Course 2 Ron Howard was born in 1954. You can find out what year Ron turned 16 by adding the year he was born to his age. 1954 + 16 In algebra, letters are often used to represent numbers. You can use a letter such as a to represent Ron Howard’s age. When he turns a years old, the year will be 1954 + a.
2-7 Variables and Algebraic Expressions Course 2 The letter a has a value that can change, or vary. When a letter represents a number that can vary, it is called a variable. The year 1954 is a constant because the number cannot change. An algebraic expression consists of one or more variables. It usually contains constants and operations. For example, 1954 + a is an algebraic expression for the year Ron Howard turns a certain age.
2-7 Variables and Algebraic Expressions Course 2 To evaluate an algebraic expression, substitute a number for the variable.
