Question

Identify the terms and like terms in the expression 1. y + 10 - 3/4y2. 2r² + 7r - r² - 93. 7 + 4p - 5 + p + 2q

Answer 1

Like terms are the ones that have same variables.

Such as:

• x is like term to 3x

,

• y is like term to 1/2y

,

• x^2 is like term to 6x^2

,

• r^3 is like term to -2r^3

Now, looking at the choices:

1. Like terms are:

`y\text{ and -}(3)/(4)y`

2. Like terms are:

`2r^{2\text{ }}and-r^2`

3. Like terms are:

`4p\text{ and p}`

All other terms in each question are just "terms", not like terms.
