Answer:
Like terms are terms whose variables are the same.
We can only add them because if they does not have the same variable you do not actually know if the variables are equivalent and you will get the wrong answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
Ex: 4z,7z,108z,45z
Ex: 4w-2h+7a-2w
You can not add 4w and 7a because you do not know what the variables equal so you do not know the true number so add or subtract by.

Answer:
z = x^3 +1
Step-by-step explanation:
Noting the squared term, it makes sense to substitute for that term:
z = x^3 +1
gives ...
16z^2 -22z -3 = 0 . . . . the quadratic you want
_____
<em>Solutions derived from that substitution</em>
Factoring gives ...
16z^2 -24z +2z -3 = 0
8z(2z -3) +1(2z -3) = 0
(8z +1)(2z -3) = 0
z = -1/8 or 3/2
Then we can find x:
x^3 +1 = -1/8
x^3 = -9/8 . . . . . subtract 1
x = (-1/2)∛9 . . . . . one of the real solutions
__
x^3 +1 = 3/2
x^3 = 1/2 = 4/8 . . . . . . subtract 1
x = (1/2)∛4 . . . . . . the other real solution
The complex solutions will be the two complex cube roots of -9/8 and the two complex cube roots of 1/2.
This is my work hope this helps.
