In the expression \(3x - 4 + x + 7\), we can identify pairs of like terms. Like terms are those that have the same variable raised to the same power.
The terms in the expression are:
- \(3x\)
- \(-4\)
- \(x\)
- \(7\)
Now, let's identify the like terms:
- \(3x\) and \(x\): These are like terms because they both contain the variable \(x\).
- \(-4\) and \(7\): These are also like terms as they are both constant terms.
Therefore, the pairs of like terms are:
- \(3x\) and \(x\)
- \(-4\) and \(7\)
The correct responses are:
- 3x and x
- −4 and 7
