Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Terms are variables in math.

For example: 5x + 6y = is NOT like becuase x and y equal different things

4x + 2x = is like becuase x equals the same number in both

The reason we care about like terms is because we can simplify like terms.

4x + 2x simply equals 6x.

I'm always happy to help :)
