No, 12x and 14y are not like terms. Like terms are terms that have the same variable raised to the same power. In this case, 12x has a variable x raised to the first power, while 14y has a variable y raised to the first power. Since the variables are different, they are not considered like terms.

Is 12x and 5x like terms?

Yes, 12x and 5x are like terms because they have the same variable, which is 'x'. Like terms are terms that have the same variable(s) raised to the same power(s). In this case, both terms have 'x' raised to the power of 1. Therefore, they can be combined or simplified together in algebraic expressions.

What are like terms in algebra?

Terms with the same variable(s). In like terms, you may add, subtract, multiply, or divide them. In the equation 3x - 5ax + 9x = 7ax, the 5x and the 10x are like terms because they both contain variables of the same value. Thus, we are allowed to add them up and get 12x. The -5ax and the 7ax are also like terms and if we add 5ax to both sides (after we add 3x to 9x), we'll get the equation 12x = 12ax.
