Combining two or more like terms simplifies an expression by summing constants and summing those variable terms in which the same variables are raised to the same power.  For example, ___ ___ ____ in the expression 3x+7+5x−3+2x2+3y2 gives 8x+4+2x2+3y2.  When working with algebra tiles, ___ ___ ___ involves putting together tiles with the same dimensions.
