An equation is called an equation because the root of the word 'equation' is the verb 'to equate'.
That is, an equation says that two quantities are equal. This is the vital piece of information that a mathematician learns by inspecting an equation.
Combining several pieces of such information like clues to a puzzle let mathematicians and engineers solve systems of equations for the variables involved, though this isn't always possible unless you have at least one equation for each variable.
Algebraic methods all derive from what can be done to two equal quantities while keeping them equal, and algebraic substitution derives from the fact that the quantity substituted is equal to the expression replaced.

What are lines that run parallel from the equator called?
There are no parallel lines that run FROM the equator. Lines that are parallel TO the equator are the latitudes.
What is the 0 line of the latitude called?
It is called the "Equator".Zero degrees latitude is called the equator. The equator separates the northern and southern hemispheres of the Earth and is equidistant from the North and South Poles.That is the Equator. The imaginary line at zero degrees longitude is called the Prime Meridian.
Why is Ecuador called equador?
Because it is on the equator and Ecuador means equator on Spanish. :)
What is the south equator called?
The areas south of the equator are known as the "southern hemisphere."
