Answer 1

C)
`7cb^2`

Explanation:

Given expression is
`8b^2c`.

Now we need to find about which of the following terms can be added to the given expression
`8b^2c`.

A)
`8b^2c^2`

B)
`8bc`

C)
`7cb^2`

D)
`10c^2b`

We know that we are allowed to add only like terms. So

`8b^2c` can be added with that term only which contains
`b^2c`.

Choice C)
`7cb^2` contains
`b^2c`.

Hence correct answer is C)
`7cb^2`.

Answer 2

C)7cb^2

EXPLANATION

We want find the term among the given options that can be added to

`8 {b}^(2) c`

That term must be similar to the given term.

It means that,it must be a

`{b}^(2) c`

term.

From the alternatives provided, the only term, that is similar to the given term is

`7c {b}^(2)`

Therefore, the correct answer is C
