No, they are not like terms because they cannot be added together. 5x^2 is squared, whereas 2x is not. Though they both have x variables attached to them, they are not like terms because one is squared and the other is not. Examples of like terms include 5 and 8, 4y and 7y, 8z^2 and 10z^2.

Hope this helps!! :)
