Answer:

A variable is a letter, for example x, y or z, that represents an unspecified number.

6+x=12

To evaluate an algebraic expression, you have to substitute a number for each variable and perform the arithmetic operations. In the example above, the variable x is equal to 6 since 6 + 6 = 12.

If we know the value of our variables, we can replace the variables with their values and then evaluate the expression.

Explanation:

6z+4x=?

Solution: Replace x with 3 and z with 2 to evaluate the expression.

6z+4x=?

6⋅2+4⋅3=?

12+12=24
