Points to remember
? Algebraic expressions are formed from variables and constants.
? A quantity having a fixed numerical value is called a constant whereas a
quantity having different numerical values is called a variable.
? Expressions are made up of terms.
? Terms which have the same algebraic factors are like terms and terms which
have different algebraic factors are unlike terms.
? Any expression with one or more terms is called a polynomial. A one term
expression is called monomial, a two-term expression is called binomial and a
three term expression is called trinomial.
? The highest power of the variable is the degree of an algebraic expression.
? Rules and formula are written in a concise and general form using algebraic
expressions.
