is this equation valid?

max_clients = worker_processes * worker_connections

Yes.

or

worker_connections == max_clients

and the worker_processes are only for 'loadbalancing'?

worker_processes are used for 1) SMP, 2) to decrease latency when workers blockend on disk I/O, 3) to limit number of connections per process when select()/poll() is used.
