Answer 1

Like terms share the same variable raised to the same power. For the term \(-4x\), a like term would specifically involve the variable \(x\).

From the list you provided, the like terms to \(-4x\) are:

• \(1.5x\)
• \(x\)
• \(-10x\)
• \(3x\)

The numbers \(-4\), \(-7y\), and \(-4\) are not like terms because they do not contain the variable \(x\).
