Question

What is -2(5+6m) + 16 = -90 ? Can you please show with detail

Answer 1

Answer:

m = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

-2(5 + 6m) + 16 = -90

Start by distributing -2 inside the parentheses. This means you will multiply everything inside the parentheses (5 + 6m) by -2.

-10 - 12m + 16 = -90

Simplify the left side of the equation by combining like terms.

6 - 12m = -90

Subtract 6 from both sides of the equation to isolate the term containing the variable m and to move all other terms to the other side (right) of the equation.

-12m = -96

Divide both sides of the equation by -12 to isolate and solve for m.

m = 8
