'Identify like & unlike terms' for 6th grade
6th grade / Algebra / Algebraic notation / Algebraic notation / Identify like & unlike terms
Like and unlike terms
In algebra a "term" is any combination of variables, exponents and constants or coefficients upon which mathematical operations such as addition or multipliation can be performed. Examples of terms are:
3a 63b -23y 4x³ -ab⁻³
Terms are most often found grouped together into expressions. Expressions are groups of terms separated by mathematical operators. Examples of expressions are:
a + 5 3b² - a 2b x 3b⁻³ 4x³ ÷ 15y⁴
What are like terms?
Like terms are terms whose base and exponent are the same. The base of the term 3b² is b and the exponent is 2. The coefficient is 3 but you can ignore the coefficient when looking for like terms. Examples of like terms are in the boxes below which all share the same base x :
x -33x ½x
Unlike terms are those whose base or base and exponent are different (ignore the coefficient when deciding). So, examples of unlike terms are:
7x -33x² 5xy
where the x is unlike x² which is unlike xy.
Why do we care about like terms?
If terms are like terms, you can easily add or subtract them. You cannot do so with unlike terms. The following two examples show adding like terms :
a³ + 3a³ = 4a³
5p²q⁵ + 3p²q⁵ = 8p²q⁵

Cat versus mouse game with added balloons for math and fun. You are the ginger cat, and your life is being made a misery by some white mice which have come into the house and are proving hard to catch. Not to mention there is a mouse house party going on and lots of balloons getting in the way of your hunting.
So you have to catch the white mice, forget about the gray mice, hit the blue balloons but avoid the red balloons, and answer math questions (you are a CLEVER cat...). If it sounds complicated and a bit frantic, that's because it is. Do your best but don't worry if you can't catch all the mice - neither can we. It's a cat's life...

- Mouse scores are 25 points for each white mouse caught, minus 5 points for each white mouse that escapes.
- When you do catch a white mouse, a math question will appear.
- Answer the math question correctly for those extra points...
- You get 50 points for each correct answer, but you lose 25 points for each wrong answer.
- Hitting blue balloons gives you extra points, but 3 hits on a balloon will burst it for that level.
- Hitting red balloons takes away points.
- Balloon scores are +5 or +10 points for blue balloons, -5 or -10 points for red balloons.
