Algebra is the art of reducing and solving equations. - Al-Khwarizmi Algebra has been used for over 4500 years dating back to ancient Babylon, where assignments were written on clay tablets using the ends of little sticks to make wedge-shaped marks. About 1000 years later, Egyptian students wrote their assignments on papyrus, a parchment-like material that was easier to write on than a clay tablet. The Greek mathematician, Diophantus, introduced his style of writing equations. 3
Steps for Solving ALL Equations: 1 st Distribute to get rid of the parentheses, if necessary. 2 nd Combine like terms on the same side of the =. 3 rd Add & subtract to get all constants to one side of the = and all variables to the other side of the =. 4 th Multiply & Divide to get the variable by itself.
