Explanation: In this expression, +2w, +4w, and +8w are called terms and the numbers in front of the variables, +2, +4, and +8 are called coefficients.
Because the variables are identical,
the three terms in this problem are called like terms.
They can be added together by adding their coefficients.
Since 2 + 4 + 8 is 14, 2w + 4w + 8w is 14w.
