Best answer=brainiest can someone please explain algebraic expressions?

In mathematics, an algebraic expression is an expression built up from integer constants, variables, and the algebraic operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division and exponentiation by an exponent that is a rational number). For example, 3x2 − 2xy + c is an algebraic expression.

Step-by-step explanation:

An algebraic expression includes variables. Variables are letters that stand for a potential number; most commonly you see x, y, and z used but you can use any letter. Constants are also common in algebraic expressions, and are numbers that are added or subtracted, as well as coefficients, which are what you multiply the variable by.

For example:

3x + 1

Here, the variable is x. The constant is 1. The coefficient is 3.

These are different then other expressions because of the addition of variables. 4 + 4 is not an algebraic expression, but 4x + 4 is.

Algebraic expressions also do not have equal signs, they are not equations.

They can also be more complicated than the ones I've expressed already. 3x^4 + 2x^2 + 4 is an algebraic expression too.

Hope this helps!
