X Marks The Thought

We introduce algebra, giving a translation of the word from the Arabic phrase for 鈥渞eunion of broken parts鈥. We introduce equations and see an equation of the kind that students will have see, where an icon stands for an unknown. We replace the icon with 鈥渪鈥 and demonstrate solving simple equations by using inverse operations. We also see examples of simplifying an expression by collecting like terms.
