a+a+a+a+b+b - add the like terms =4a+2b 4a and 2b cannot be added because they are not like terms.
There are no like terms here.
They are terms of an algebraic expression that can be simplified to: 2b+2c
sample problem 9b + 3a - a + 6+ 2b + 4 terms would be each number or number plus a variable separated by an operation symbol (+ or -) like terms would be 9b and 2b, 3a and -a, and 6 and 4 simply add 9b + 2b (which is 11b) 3a-a (which is 2a) and 6 + 4 (which is 10) your answer would then be 11b + 2a + 10 hope that helped
ok, let's see: (3a-2a) + (2b+5b) +(-c +3c) = a + 7b +2c I think that's right.
a+a+a+a+b+b - add the like terms =4a+2b 4a and 2b cannot be added because they are not like terms.
4b - 9 + 2b + 8 Coefficients are the numbers in front of the variables. Therefore the coefficient of 4b is 4 and the coefficient of 2b is 2. The like terms are 2b and 2b, but also -9 and 8. Constant terms are the ones that do not contain a variable. -9 and 8 are the constants. 4b - 9 + 2b + 8 can be simplified (by combining like terms) to give 2b - 1

a + 7b + 2c
Gathering like terms together, this is equal to 5a + 3b + 7c.

(x + 2)(a + b)
2s-2b= a+b+c-2b simplified that would be a+c-b.
a-2b is a binomial. It has two terms: a, and -2b.
To simplify the expression 2a^2b^2 + 5ab^2 + 8a^2b^2 - 3ab^2, first combine like terms. The terms with a^2b^2 are 2a^2b^2 + 8a^2b^2 = 10a^2b^2. The terms with ab^2 are 5ab^2 - 3ab^2 = 2ab^2. Therefore, the simplified expression is 10a^2b^2 + 2ab^2.
