Question

State whether a given pair of terms is of like or unlike terms: $1,100$

Answer 1

Verify the given statement:

In algebra, terms with the same variable raised to the same power are referred to as "similar terms."

Only the numerical coefficients are subject to variation in algebraic terms.

Given pair of terms is $1,100$

They can be written as $1x^0,100x^0\mathbf{}\mathbf{}\mathbf{}\left[\because a^0=1\right]$

Here both terms have same variable i.e. $x$ raised to the same exponent i.e. $0$. Thus they are like terms.

Hence the given pair of terms are like terms.
