No, because they can't simply be added together.
For example:
2x and 3x are like terms and can simply be added to be 5x.
If x = 3, 2(3) + 3(3) = 15, which is 5(3)
2x and 3x(squared) can't be added together to make 5x.
If x = 3, 2(3) + 3(9) = 33, which is 11(3).
Unlike terms.
It depends on whether you are working with variables. You cannot add terms with variables that have unlike exponents.
In algebra, expressions that have the same variable and exponents are considered like terms. For example, the terms (3x^2) and (5x^2) are like terms because they both contain the variable (x) raised to the same exponent of 2. Like terms can be combined through addition or subtraction, while terms with different variables or exponents cannot be combined in this way.
like terms
Terms with different variables or the same variables raised to different powers are called "monomials." A monomial is a single term that can be a number, a variable, or a product of numbers and variables raised to non-negative integer exponents. For example, (3x^2), (5y), and (-2xy^3) are all monomials. When combining such terms in algebraic expressions, only like terms (terms with the same variables raised to the same powers) can be added or subtracted.
Unlike terms.
You can't. You can only subtract like terms. Like terms must have exactly the same variables and exponents on the variables.

These terms are called like terms.For example: x and 2x are like terms.But: x3 and 4x2 are not like termsbecause although the variables are the same, the exponents are different.
