Only like terms can be added or subtracted. 10m and 1s cannot be added; but divided, 10 m/s becomes a velocity.


When can you add or subtract coefficients?

You can add and subtract coefficients when they occur in like terms, which means they have the same variable. 2x + 3x = 5x (This addition can take place because all of the variables are x, and are therefore like terms.) and 5y - 2y = 3y (This subtraction can take place because all of the variables are y, and are therefore like terms.) However, if the variables differ, they are unlike terms, and you cannot add or subtract the coefficients. For example: 2a + 3b cannot be added because a and b are different variables, and therefore unlike terms. 3c - 2d cannot occur because c and d are different variables, and therefore unlike terms..

How do you simplify 6b 7b 2b squared?

To simplify the expression (6b + 7b + 2b^2), first combine like terms. The terms (6b) and (7b) can be added together to get (13b). The expression then becomes (13b + 2b^2). This is the simplified form, as it cannot be simplified further.
