4. Like Terms: terms that have the same variable raised to the same power
Like Terms: terms that have the same variable raised to the same power. Only the coefficients of like terms can be different. X Y a³
Vocabulary
Variable: A symbol, usually a letter, which is used to represent one or more numbers.
Coefficient: The number part of a term that includes a variable. For example, 3 is the coefficient of the term 3x.
Constant: A quantity having a fixed value that does not change or vary, such as a number. For example, 5 is the constant of x + 5.

5. Vocabulary
