It is not so easy to understand the difference between Algebra and Calculus. Let's try to explain it using an example in which we use math to study a physical problem: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MltYNJcCS14
Algebra problem: A car moves at a constant speed and goes 180 miles in 3 hours. How fast is it going?
Calculus problem: A car moves with variable speed. Its position is given by s(t) = (some formula). Find its speed as a function of time.
