  1. Glossary of mathematical symbols. A mathematical symbol is a figure or a combination of figures that is used to represent a mathematical object, an action on mathematical objects, a relation between mathematical objects, or for structuring the other symbols that occur in a formula. As formulas are entirely constituted with symbols of various ...

  2. List of mathematical symbols. The list below has some of the most common symbols in mathematics. However, these symbols can have other meanings in different contexts other than math. If x=y, x and y represent the same value or thing. If x≈y, x and y are almost equal. If x≠y, x and y do not represent the same value or thing.

This site scares me sometimes... xD. Thanks! EDIT: I got the x-axis and y-axis mixed up when I wrote it. I do understand what they actually mean. Sorry!

  6. Replace each variable in the expression with the specified value, and then simplify the resulting expression by specifying the order of operations. Example 1: Consider an algebraic expression x+5, Let’s evaluate it for x=7. Substitute the value of x in the expression. 7+5=12. Example 2: Consider an algebraic expression y2-5y+2.
