To add like terms, find the terms that have the same (or no) variable, and combine the coefficients of the terms. For instance, if you have a+b where a and b are real numbers, you can combine them.

Combine like terms
You don't use a 'property" to combine like terms, you use an "operation". To combine like terms, use the following operations:Addition: 4x+3x=7xSubtraction: 4x-3x=1x=xMultiplication/Division:4x = 2x + y-2x + 4x = 2x + y -2x2x = y1/2 * 2x = y * 1/2x = y/2check: x,y=(10,20)4*10 = 2*10+2040 = 20+2040 = 40 = true==============You are absolutely right! I stand corrected: But if the asker wants to know, it is the distributive property of like terms which makes combing them possible as illustrated in the examples, above. Thanks.-----You can use the distributive property to combine like terms.For example, take 3x+5x. By using the distributive property, this is the same as x(3+5). Since 3+5=8, the sum of 3x and 5x is 8x.
Are term whose variables are the same
There are different ways with different situations.
combine
Two terms that have the same variables and you can combine them in addition. For example, 3x and 34x have the same variable, and when you add them, they combine to form 37x. 4y and 4 do not have the same variable and you cannot combine them in addition. For example, 4y + 4 equals 4y + 4; it cannot be simplified or combined.
The combined term for them is Modem.
Since 4R and R both contain a like term (R), you can combine them: 5R would be 4R plus R simplified

Add
The generic term would be "salt"; not the specific "table salt" sodium chloride, but the general term.
Most elements can combine in some fashion. Only a few, like Argon, are unable to combine in most circumstances.
The medical term for what cells do to form tissues is "differentiation." This is the process by which less specialized cells become more specialized and acquire specific functions to form the various types of tissues in the body.
I never heard anyone put those words together like that before, but if by "clumping together" you mean to combine several cells to act like a single cell, the term in joining.
There is nothing that you can do when you combine like terms that you cannot do without combining them. Some procedures might be easier, though, if like terms are combined.
