Answer:
In algebra, like terms are terms that have the same variables and powers. The coefficients do not need to match.
Unlike terms are two or more terms that are not like terms, i.e. they do not have the same variables or powers. The order of the variables does not matter unless there is a power. For example, 8xyz2 and −5xyz2 are like terms because they have the same variables and power while 3abc and 3ghi are unlike terms because they have different variables. Since the coefficient doesn't affect likeness, all
Huh?
You forgot something.

Answer:
17 packets
Step-by-step explanation:
So Tanya needs 130 chocolate bars.
But there is 8 in each packet.
So,
130 ÷ 8 = 16.25
16 packets
As you can see, there is a quarter left of chocolates that she needs (0.25). So what she can do is buy 1 more packet then give the quarter of that packet to the children.
So 16 + 1 = 17 packets
Answer:
a = - 4, b = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Expand the left side and compare the coefficients of like terms on the right side.
- 3(2x² + ax + b)
= - 6x² - 3ax - 3b
Comparing like terms with - 6x² + 12x - 15
x - term → - 3a = 12 ( divide both sides by - 3 )
a = - 4
constant term → - 3b = - 15 ( divide both sides by - 3 )
b = 5
