Combining Like Terms
Two or more terms are alike if they have the same variables and the exponents (or roots) on those variables are the same: 3x2y and 5x2y are like terms but 6xy and 4xy2 are not. Constants are terms with no variables. The number in front of the variable(s) is the coefficient—in 4x2y3, 4 is the coefficient. If no number appears in front of the variable, then the coefficient is 1. Add or subtract like terms by adding or subtracting their coefficients.
