\frac{2}{3} (x - 4) = 2x \\  \frac{2}{3} x -  \frac{8}{3}  = 2x \\  \frac{2}{3} x - 2x =  \frac{8}{3}  \\  \frac{2}{3} x -  \frac{6}{3} x =  \frac{8}{3}  \\   \frac{ - 4}{3} x =  \frac{8}{3}  \\  - 12x = 24 \\ x =  \frac{24}{ - 12}  \\ x =  - 2

Then you will have  <em>m = 480/8</em> .

This is the true value of 'm', but you may want to simplify it

INEQUALITIES <br> How can i graph 2x - 5 + 4x &gt; 2x - 1 on a number (or cartesian) plane.
zubka84 [21]
So you need to replace X with a number, let’s say 4 in this example. 2 x 4 - 5 + 4 x 4 > 2 x 4 - 1 which is basically 19>7
