Algebraic expressions tend to have atleast one unknown variable in it. In order to solve the expression we need to assign a fixed value to that variable or isolate it if the expression is equal to another value. For example, in the following expression we have the variable x, if we give it a value of 5 we simply solve like a regular expression...
5x + 3
5(5) + 3
25 + 3
28
Therefore, if we swap the variable x for the value of 5 we would get a value of 28 in this algebraic expression.
