No, 12x and 14y are not like terms. Like terms are terms that have the same variable raised to the same power. In this case, 12x has a variable x raised to the first power, while 14y has a variable y raised to the first power. Since the variables are different, they are not considered like terms.
This will simplify to 27 - 12x, assuming the original equation was 7-34-2x-10x.* * * * *No, it will not! If the assumption is correct, it will simplify to -27-12x.
I meant to ask Can you simplify 972=12^x (972 equals 12 to the x power)
12x+14
If you mean: 5x+9+7x-11 then it simplifies to 12x-2

Combine like terms, meaning add 12X plus 4X which is 16X and then you add 25Y plus 15Y which equals 40Y so the answer will be 16x+40y. combine like terms means add the ones with the same variable.
To simplify the expression 18 + 7x - 12 + 5x, you first combine like terms. Combine the constants (18 and -12) to get 6. Then, combine the x terms (7x and 5x) to get 12x. Therefore, the simplified expression is 6 + 12x.
This will simplify to 27 - 12x, assuming the original equation was 7-34-2x-10x.* * * * *No, it will not! If the assumption is correct, it will simplify to -27-12x.
-2x+12x+28=10x+28 ;Combining like factors2(5x+14) ; Factor out a two from both of them
It is: 12x
After collecting like terms, (3 - 5x - 5 - 12x) reduces to (-2 - 17x).
Yes, 12x and 5x are like terms because they have the same variable, which is 'x'. Like terms are terms that have the same variable(s) raised to the same power(s). In this case, both terms have 'x' raised to the power of 1. Therefore, they can be combined or simplified together in algebraic expressions.
