Evaluation of algebraic expressions and formulas

1. Evaluation of algebraic expressions

  • The process of replacing each variable with its value to find the actual value of an algebraic expression is called substitution.

2. Formulas

  • The area of a rectangle is given by
    • Area = Length x Width
    • A = lw
  • This equality of connecting two or more variables is called a formula. When the values of l and w are known, we can find the value of A in the formula by substitution.
