An algebraic expression is anything that involves unknown variables mixed with known numbers. For instance, this is an expression:
2x%2B5 or x%5E2%2B5x%2B4
It is important to note that expressions don't have equal signs.

An algebraic equation is like an expression in every way but they have an equal sign like this:
2x%2B5=5 or x%5E2%2B5x%2B4=10
