Algebraic expressions play a crucial role in various mathematical fields. From calculating the area of a circle to calculating the prices of multiple items within a specific budget, algebra is everywhere in our daily lives. None of the higher mathematics is possible without these algebraic expressions. Algebraic expressions are a combination of constants and variables combined by arithmetic operations. The NCERT Solutions of this chapter help students understand and work on simplifying and solving algebraic expressions using arithmetic operations. These solutions are very useful for the students to practice more problems and evaluate themselves, aiding in exam preparation.
As these solutions are prepared by subject matter experts at Careers360, it is one of the most accurate study materials. These solutions give conceptual clarity encouraging students to practice more problems in this chapter.

Variable: A symbol denoted by letters (such as x, y, z, p, q, r, etc.) that can vary, representing an unknown quantity or value.
How Are Expressions Formed?
Algebraic expressions are formed by combining variables and constants using mathematical operations (Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, and Division).
Terms and Factors of An Expression:
Terms are components of expressions formed by combining variables and constants.
The term includes the sign, so we say "added" without specifying addition or subtraction.
In the diagram, factors are shown with dotted lines and terms with continuous lines.
Coefficient: The coefficient is the numerical factor of a term in an expression.
Polynomial: An expression with one or more algebraic terms is called a polynomial.
Types of Polynomials
An expression with one algebraic term is called a monomial.
An expression with two algebraic terms is called a binomial.
An expression with three algebraic terms is called a trinomial.
