2 10.1 SIMPLIFYING ALGEBRAIC EXPRESSIONS Key Vocabulary 10.1 algebraic expression: variable: coefficient: constant term: like terms: unlike terms: Think 10.1 coefficient 2x 2 exp onent var iable Like terms have same variables raised to same exponent y and 3xy share the like term y. 2x5 3 share the like terms 5 and 3. Unlike terms do not share a common variab le raised to same exponent. 2 2x and 2x do not share a common variable mn and 2m n do not share a common variable. Constant terms stand alone without exponent. For 2x 3,3is a constant term because it has no variable. You can simplify algebraic expressions by combining like terms only. 2x x 3x 3xy 2xy 5xy Try It 10.1 Identify the parts of the algebraic expression.
