Oh, dude, like terms are terms that have the same variables raised to the same power. In this case, 6ab and 4ba are like terms because they both have the variables a and b raised to the first power. So yeah, they're like terms, but like, who even cares, right?
Yep! Because with a little rearrangement, this 4ba becomes 4ab. You can do this because, well, in multiplication this works. I mean, 2 x 3 is the same as 3 x 2 right? So to be like terms you have to have the same variables in both terms, and in both you have an a and a b being multiplied together- its just easier to see if you rearrange it (but not necessary)

What makes two terms like terms?
Two terms are "like terms" when they are the same. For example, in the equation: 14x2 + 9x - 3 = 149x 9x and 149x are like terms because they both have "x" in them. Note that x2 is not a like term to x. You can add and subtract like terms, but not unlike terms. So the above equation could be reduced to: 14x2 - 3 = 140x by subtracting 9x from both sides.

What precedent did George Washington set for future presidents?
George Washington was asked to run for a third term in office and declined because he felt we would wind up with a government like England with a King at the head of government. He therefore set a precedent of only two terms in office. This was followed until FDR and he was elected for four terms. Thereafter there was introduced an amendment to the constitution limiting presidential terms to two.

How do you simplify 6a2 - 6ab plus 7a2?
To simplify the expression 6a^2 - 6ab + 7a^2, first combine like terms. Combine the terms with the same variable (a) raised to the same power. This results in 13a^2 - 6ab as the simplified expression. Remember to keep the terms in standard form with the variable term first, followed by any constant terms.
What is the greatest common factor of 6ab and 3a?
Since 3a is a factor of 6ab, it is automatically the GCF.
What is 5a2 6ab factorized?

What is 6ab-3b factorize?
6ab-3b factorize = 3
What is 2a x 3b?
2a x 3b = 6ab
What is 2a divided by 6ab?
0.3333
What is 3a x 2b simplified?
3a2b is the simplest formImproved Answer:-3a x 2b = 6ab when simplified
How does 6ab doubled equal 12ab?
Take away the a&b and that's just like 6 without the a or b
What is 2a plus 3b equals 6ab?
With the assumption your asking what a or b are in terms of each other. a=3b/(6b-2) b=2a/(6a-2)
