Answer:

when they have the same variable and their exponent if applicable isn't different.

Step-by-step explanation:

For example if you have a value like 3x and 4x they are like terms that can be combined;7x. If you have say 5x and 6y they are not like terms.

The second option would be your answer.

Vesna [10]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{ax^2+ay^2-bx^2-by^2+b-a=(a-b)(x^2+y^2-1)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$ax^2+ay^2-bx^2-by^2+b-a\\\\=(ax^2-bx^2)+(ay^2-by^2)+(b-a)\qquad\text{use the distributive property}\\\\=x^2(a-b)+y^2(a-b)-1(a-b)\\\\=(a-b)(x^2+y^2-1)$

Use the graph to the right to write an equation of the line. What is the equation?

Bingel [31]

Answer:

y = 1/4 x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

To write the equation of a line, find from the line the slope and y-intercept. The y-intercept is where the line crosses the y-axis which here is at point (0,-2).

The slope of the line is found by writing a ratio between the vertical distance and the horizontal distance between points.

Slope is 1/4.

Substitute m = 1/4 and b = -2 into the slope intercept form y = mx + b.

y = 1/4 x - 2
