Question

Solve the equation 7m-5-13m=25 by combining like terms. Show all work please need asap

Answer 1

You must combine like terms.
First add 7m and -13m which makes -6m. That makes the equation
-6m - 5 =25.
Then add 5 on both sides, which makes -6m = 30.
Finally divide -6 on both sides and the answer will be
m= -5

Answer 2

You subtract 7m and 13m which would give you -6m after you have -6m - 5= 25 then you add 5 which gives you 30 you then you divide that by -6 which gives you m=-5
