How do you subtract like variables with different exponents?
You can't. You can only subtract like terms. Like terms must have exactly the same variables and exponents on the variables.
What are terms that include the same variables and their corresponding exponents?
like terms
Algebraic terms that contain the same variables and exponents?
are known as like terms.
What can you simplify an expression by combining what?
Like Terms and Variables
What are the rules for combining like terms?
When combining like terms like 2x+3x we add their coeffitients, for example 2x+3x=(2+3)x=5x
Is x and y like terms?
No. For purposes of combining "like terms", you need terms that have exactly the same variables, with the same exponents (if there are any).
How do you subtract like variables with different exponents?
You can't. You can only subtract like terms. Like terms must have exactly the same variables and exponents on the variables.
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 is terms with the same variables raised to the same exponents?
like terms
What are terms that include the same variables and their corresponding exponents?
like terms
Terms with the same variables raised to the same exponents?
like terms

are known as like terms.
What is combining like terms?
In Math combining like terms is like so if the equation is 4a+4=2a you combined the 4 and the 5 because they are both A
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.

25 and 2 are like terms?
The are like- whether they are terms or not depends on how they are used. The could be terms or actors or exponents or something else entirely.
What are the rules for combining like terms?
When combining like terms like 2x+3x we add their coeffitients, for example 2x+3x=(2+3)x=5x
