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:
233.5 in²
Step-by-step explanation:
First we have to find the slant height.
5²+14²=c²
25+196=c²
221=c²
c=14.866
Now we can find the lateral area.
rl
(5)(14.866)
=233.51566
To the nearest tenth=
233.5 in²
