Combining Like Terms Mastery

The video tutorial explains the concept of terms in algebra, focusing on how terms are separated by plus or minus signs. It introduces like terms, which are terms with the same variable raised to the same power, and demonstrates how to combine them using various examples. The tutorial provides step-by-step guidance on simplifying expressions by combining like terms, using both simple and advanced examples with multiple variables.
