Yes. M+3=-5, subtract 3 from both sides: -5-3=-2: m=-2. M=-2 is the same as m=-2 :)
I only found 4 ways, hope this helps
2x^2 + 14x = -12
Step 1: Subtract -12 from both sides.
2x^2 + 14x - (-12) = -12 - (-12)
2x^2 + 14x + 12 = 0
Step 2: Factor the left side of the equation.
2(x + 1)(x + 6) = 0
Step 3: Set Factors equal to 0.
x + 1 = 0 or x + 6 = 0
x = -1 or x = -6
Answer:
x = -1 or x = -6
Hope this helps. : )
