Therefore, the expression remains as x+x2x + x^2.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Explanation of combining terms:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When simplifying algebraic expressions, we combine like terms. Like terms are terms that have the same variable raised to the same power. For example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>6x6x and \u22128x-8x are like terms because both have the variable xx raised to the power of 1.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>However, xx and x2x^2 are <strong>not<\/strong> like terms, as xx is raised to the first power and x2x^2 is raised to the second power. They cannot be combined directly because they represent different powers of the variable xx.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>To combine like terms, you simply add or subtract their coefficients. In the case of 6x\u22128x6x &#8211; 8x, the result is \u22122x-2x because the coefficients are 6 and -8. However, in expressions like x+x2x + x^2, where the terms involve different exponents, you leave the terms separate and do not combine them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Correct Answer and Explanation is : Now, let&#8217;s look at combining terms: Explanation of combining terms: When simplifying algebraic expressions, we combine like terms.
