rofl = lmao
The last one is a bit of a joke, but it shows (along with the second-to-last one) that variables can be used in equations. Here are some non-equations:
1. 6 = 7
2. y > 4
3. 56789 + 123456
4. I think the = sign looks like a sandwich.
1 isn't an equation because, as I hope you know, 6 is not the same as 7. 2 and 3 aren't equations because they don't contain equals signs. 4 is just plain ridiculous. Just because it contains an = sign doesn't mean it's an equation. In case you hadn't noticed, 2 is an inequality, 3 is a mathematical expression, and 4 is a sentence.
