Variable- A variable is a letter or a symbol in an algebraic expression or equation that can vary its amounts. There are two diffrerent types of variable, independant and dependant variable. While variables are mostly conected to the number that it is multipling it can be shown after a multiplication sign. The letter most of the time the letters example- 3x=9 or 3*x=9

independant variables- Independant verables are variables that change the out come of the problem. Indepentant variables arethe variables that are always in an algebraic problem. example- 3x =9 x is the independant variable.

dependant variable- Dependant variables depend on independat variables for their value. Dependant values are on the outside of the qual sign and are the answers from the problem. Dependant variables are not always needed except in an equation. example- 3x=t x is the dependant and t is the dependant.
