A variable is a quantity that may change within the context of a mathematical problem or experiment. Typically, we use a single letter to represent a variable. The letters x, y, and z are common generic symbols used for variables. Sometimes, we will choose a letter that reminds us of the quantity it represents, such as t for time, v for voltage,b for bacteria
