Answer:
m = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
24 = -6(m + 1) + 18 (Given)
24 = -6(m) + -6(1) + 18 (Distributive Property of Equality)
24 = -6m - 6 + 18 (Simplify)
24 = -6m + 12 (Simplify)
24 - 12 = -6m + 12 - 12 (Subtraction Property of Equality)
12 = -6m (Simplify)
(Division Property of Equality)
-2 = m (Simplify)
m = -2 (Distributive Property of Equality)

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello there,
The equation that we have to factor is as follows:
2x² + 3x - 54
In order to factor this we first multiply (-54) by 2 and try to find two factor pairs that can be add up to 3.
For this we would use 12 * -9 which gives you -108 when multiplied and when added you would get 3.
2x² + 12x - 9x -54
2x(x + 6) -9(x +6)
(2x - 9) (x + 6)
Now the factor pairs would be: (2x - 9)(x + 6)
Hope I helped,
Amna
