OpenStudy (jhannybean):

like terms are terms that have the same variables to the same power. i.e \(j^3~,~ j^3\)

OpenStudy (jhannybean):

\[17\color{red}{j^3},~ 92m,~ 32j^2, ~12j,~ 10m^2,~ 42j,~ 18\color{red}{j^3}, ~6m4\]

OpenStudy (bohotness):

like terms are the ones that have exactly the same letters and the same exponents 12j and 42j are like terms 17j^3 and 18j^3 are like terms these are not like terms 17j^3 and 32j^2 are NOT like terms...in order for them to be like terms, they would have to have the same exponents.
