\\(\bigcirc\\) \\(\frac{2x}{5}\\) and \\(-5.2y\\)

\\(\bigcirc\\) \\(\frac{2x}{5}\\) and \\(\frac{x}{3}\\)

\\(\bigcirc\\) \\(5.2y + 2.2\\)

\\(\bigcirc\\) \\(2.2 + \frac{x}{3}\\)

Explanation:

Identify terms with identical variable parts

$$ LATEXBLOCK0 $$

Match terms with the same variable

$$ \frac{2x}{5} \text{ and } \frac{x}{3} $$
