Answer:

False

Explanation:

two like therms have the same literal part. This is not the case because

x^3 is different from x^2 (for example if x = 2 ; 8 is not 4)

y^3 is different from y^2

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The coefficients (numbers in front) don't matter, but the exponents do.

Like terms have exactly the same exponents on the same variables.


54x^2y^3\text{ and }-12x^3y^2 are not like terms.

Example:
6x^3y^2\text{ and }-14x^3y^2 are like terms--same exponents on the x's, same exponents on the y's.
