Yes, because they both contain the variable "x". y and 9x would not be like terms because they don't have the same variable. x and 9x2 would not be like terms because the variables are not raised to the same power.
collect like terms and you get 4x + 5x + 8 - 3 ie 9x +5
2x = 5x - 12First step is to move all the like terms to one side of the equation2x (-5x) = -12-3x = -12Next, we can divide both sides by -3 to get rid of the -3 on the left side(-3x)/-3 = (-12)/-3x = 4
5x+10=40 5x+10-10=40-10 5x=30 5x/5=30/5 x=6
5x - 1 = 24 5x - 1 + 1 = 24 + 1 5x = 25 5x/5 = 25/5 x = 5
