Question

Which of the following pairs of terms are like terms?

2x and x

2yz and 3y

x and x2

x2 and 6x3

Answer 1

2x and x are like terms as they have the same number and types of variables (with the same exponent)

Answer 2

It confused me because there is 2x and x and there is also x and 2x

Answer 3

well x and x2 (which I'm assuming is x^2) are NOT like terms because they have differing exponents.

Answer 4

-4x - 8 over -4?

Answer 5

(-4x - 8)/(-4)


(-4x)/(-4) - (8)/(-4)


x + 2


So it simplifies to x+2

Answer 6

Thanks man

Answer 7

Answer 8

I got one more if you dont mind


3x-21 over 3?

Answer 9

(3x - 21)/3


(3x)/3 - (21)/3


x - 7


So the answer is x - 7
