Algebra Solver

From one-step equations to polynomial systems, the algebra solver shows the inverse operations, factoring strategy or formula behind every answer — and rejects extraneous solutions automatically.

  • Every answer independently verified
  • Results in milliseconds
  • AI explanations at your level

What the algebra solver can do

Linear equations

5x − 7 = 3x + 9

Collect like terms and isolate the variable.

Quadratics

x² − 3x − 10 = 0

Discriminant, quadratic formula and factoring.

Polynomials

x³ − 2x² − 9x + 18

Rational Root Theorem and synthetic division.

Systems

2x + 3y = 12, x − y = 1

Elimination with row operations and Cramer's rule.

Rational & radical

√(x + 3) = x − 3

Restrictions and extraneous solutions explained.

Exponents & logs

2^(x+1) = 32

Log rules and exponential equations.

Accuracy by design

A math engine first. AI second.

Chatbots guess. We compute, verify, and then explain — so every explanation is about a correct answer.

  1. 01

    Understand

    Your input — text, LaTeX, keyboard or photo — is normalized and classified into one of 20+ problem types.

  2. 02

    Compute

    A symbolic math engine solves it exactly: algebra, calculus, matrices, statistics.

  3. 03

    Verify

    Independent checks confirm the answer: substitution, numerical differentiation & integration, round-trips.

  4. 04

    Explain

    AI explains each verified step at your level — and can never change the answer.

Algebra the way teachers grade it

Solutions follow the steps you'd write on paper: simplify each side, collect variable terms, divide by the coefficient. For quadratics we show the discriminant before the formula, and for rational equations we state the domain restrictions first.
