No. For purposes of combining "like terms", you need terms that have exactly the same variables, with the same exponents (if there are any).

What are unlike terms?

one that won't talk to one another because they don't like each other... NO, seriously, they are terms that are different. For example x^2+2x+3x-4x^2. The x^2 terms are like terms and the x^2 terms and the x terms and unlike because they are different. Just like x and y, or apples and oranges.


What is y equals x plus 2 y equals 2-x?

y = x + 2 y = 2 - x so x + 2 = 2 - x Combining like terms: 2x = 0 so that x = 0 and then, from the first equation, y = 2


Does the equatiion y squared plus x equals 1 represents a function y in terms of x?

No. It represents a function of x in terms of y but, in strict mathematical terms, not a function of y in terms of x. This is because the mapping from the domain (x values) to the range (y values) is 1-to-many. For each value of x, there can be 2 values of y. For example, x = 0 gives y2 = 1 so that y = ±1.


Are x and 9x like terms?

Yes, because they both contain the variable "x". y and 9x would not be like terms because they don't have the same variable. x and 9x2 would not be like terms because the variables are not raised to the same power.
