Alecsey [184]

Answer:

The correct choices are; B,C,E, and F.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is;

$\frac{3}{4}+m=-\frac{7}{4}$

We solve for m to obtain:

$m=-\frac{7}{4}-\frac{3}{4}=-2.5$

We also solve the remaining equations to see which ones give the same result.

A: $m=\frac{10}{4} =2.5$

B: $m=-\frac{10}{4} =-2.5$

C: $m=-\frac{5}{2} =-2.5$

D: $\frac{11}{4}+m=-\frac{1}{4}$

$m=-\frac{1}{4}-\frac{11}{4}=-3$

E: $-\frac{5}{4}+m=-\frac{15}{4}$

$m=-\frac{15}{4}+\frac{5}{4}=-2.5$

F: $m+2=-0.5$

$m=-0.5-2=-2.5$

The equivalent equations are; B,C,E, and F.
