Which of the expressions does not contain any like terms?

A. \(2x^2 + 3x - 4x + 2\)
B. \(xy + yz - 17\)
C. \(x^2 + x^2 - 2x - x^2\)
D. \(4 + 8 + y\)

Asked by ch3lly626

Answer (3)

b. does not contain any like terms, because xy, yz, and -17, do not share any common variables.
Hope this helps!

The expression that does not contain any like terms is option B: x y + yz − 17 . Other expressions have terms that can be combined due to having the same variables. Thus, option B is unique in this regard.
