Like Terms :- When two or more algebraic terms have the same variables and the powers of the variables are also the same, then the terms are known as like terms.
Unlike Terms :- When two or more algebraic terms have the different variables and the powers of the variables are also the different, then the terms are known as like terms.
Given expression $- x + 2 x y + 4 x$
Like terms here are $- x, 4 x$
As $- x, 4 x$ are the terms that have same variable and same powers of variable
Hence, $- x, 4 x$ are the required like terms.
