In order for terms to be like terms they must have?
"Like terms" are terms whose variables (and their exponents such as the 2 in x2) are the same. In other words, terms that are "like" each other.
What does a commutative property have to do with combining like terms?
When you have an expression consisting of several terms added together, and they are not all like terms, and there are like terms separated by unlike terms, you use the commutative law of addition to rearrange the terms so that the like terms are next to each other.
What can terms be called like terms?
When the independent variable is of the same degree. Ex. 3x and -5x are like terms. 6 and 9 are like terms. 7x^2 and 9x^3 are NOT like terms.
Are these terms like or unlike24cd, 9cd?
Like terms
What is a term with the same variables raised to the same exponents?
They are known as like terms.
Algebraic terms that contain the same variables and exponents?
are known as like terms.
What is the definition for like terms?
like terms - are terms that have identical variable parts and constant terms
If terms are not like terms then they are?
Unlike terms.
What does like terms mean?
Like terms are terms with the same variable to the same power. Examples: 2y and 3y are like terms. 2y and 2z are not like terms 4y squared and 3y squared are like terms 4y squared and 3y are not like terms
Like terms are either or they are terms with the same that have the same?
Like terms are terms that have the same combination of variables.

How do you combine unlike terms?
Unlike terms are terms in an equation that are different. These terms cannot be combined. Like terms, however, can be combined.
What is like terms in polynomial?
They are terms in which a variable is raised to the same power (index) in both terms. So x2y and -27x2y are like terms but not xy2.
