• 2

• 3

• 4

• 5

What are like terms?

• Terms with different variables

• Terms with the same variables to the same power

• Terms with no variables

• Terms with the same variable raised to a different power

In each problem, determine the like terms - you may circle or list the like terms.

1) a – 5 + 4a

●

2) 7 – 2b + b - 8
