Answer 1

Like terms are terms with the same lettered variable.

Ex. 3x + 4y + 5z - 6z

Like terms here are 5z and 6z

Answer 2

For your second question to simplify we combine like terms....

\(\huge\bf{2+9 +17x - 5x}\)

You `add 2 and 9` and you `subtract 17x by 5x`

Answer 3

so for the second is B
