Answer:

Math with letters

Step-by-step explanation:

Algebra is just like normal math but instead of you knowing all the numbers there are some numbers you dont know and those are replaced with letters. letters are there to you can replace them with any number, or if given the right problem you might have to find out what number replaces the letter to give you the right answer. for example take 1+x=2 here x would be replaced with 1 to make this true. or take y=2-x+3 if you replace x with any number you want that changes the (y) value to give you anything you want. Also the letters can be any letter you want they dont mean anything just there as place holders for numbers.
