Question

Rearrange the equation so m is the independent variable. -2m-5n=7m-3n n=___

Answer 1

Answer:

The equation is given by:

        $n=\dfrac{-9}{2}m$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a equation in terms of the variable m and variable n as follows:

$-2m-5n=7m-3n$

Now, we are asked to find the equation in terms of m i.e. we have to consider m as independent variable and n as dependent variable since it's value is to be expressed in terms of m.

Now, we add 5n on both the sides of the equation to get:

$-2m=7m-3n+5n\\\\i.e.\\\\-2m=7m+2n$

Now, we subtract 7m from both the sides of the equation to get:

$-2m-7n=2n\\\\i.e.\\\\2n=-9m\\\\n=\dfrac{-9}{2}m$
