Question

anonymous · Answer

always has same value reguardless value of variable

Have you studied the reflexive property?

anonymous · Answer

yeah last year in geometry im in algebra 2.   would it be eggs - eggs?? for the answer

directrix · Answer

I am not following how eggs come into the solution. >eggs - eggs

anonymous · Answer

it doesn't say that in question. my friend thought that might be the answer. I wasn't sure

directrix · Answer

I was thinking along the lines of x = x or maybe 2*x = 0.
The expression must have the same value as the variable.

On 2*x = 0, x has to be 0. I don't know if that is what this question is about.

directrix · Answer

On 2*x = 0, the 2*x would have to be 0 if 2*x = 0.

anonymous · Answer

that doesn't make sense with my question I don't think??? your confusing

directrix · Answer

Well, I'm not sure I understand the question so I'll move out of the way and perhaps someone else can see the problem clearly.

A simple algebraic expression that always has the same value might be something like x=6. The variable x always has the same value: 6.

anonymous · Answer

If an expression has the exact same value regardless of the variable, then it would follow that the variable itself shouldn't be in the expression itself. Either that or the expression is one that cancels the variable to 0. So, such an example would be y = 5 or y = 0. If you were to plug in any x at all, you'd find that there isn't an x in the equation, so the value would always be y = 5 or y = 0.
