Answer:

3x and 8x are like terms.

Step-by-step explanation:

Like terms are the terms that share the same variables. They do not have to share the same coefficients - or, in other words - the numbers in front of the variable do not have to be the same. Only the variable has to match.

So, looking at the expression, the only two terms that have the same variable are 8x and 3x, which both have the variable x. Therefore, 3x and 8x are like terms.
