Answer: <em>m = 7</em>
Step-by-step explanation: In this equation, since a -5 is being multiplied by <em>m</em>, in order to get <em>m</em> by itself, we must divide both sides of the equation by -5.
On the left side, our -5's cancel out and we are left with <em>m</em>. On the right side, -35 ÷ -5 gives us 7. So m = 7.
To check our answer, we plug 7 back in for <em>m</em> in the original equation and we get -5 (7) = -35 which is a true statement so we know our answer is correct.
Don't just do this problem in your head. It's extremely important to develop the habit of putting all your steps down on paper or digitally. It will really pay off for you down the line.
I couldn’t see the whole picture so I’m not sure if I could really help I’m sorry maybe next time
First, turn 70% into a decimal by dividing 70 by 100.
70% ⇒ 0.70
Multiply 120 by 0.70.
120 × 0.70 = 84
Now we know that 84 students are involved in extracurricular activities. Subtract 84 from 120 to find the amount of students who are <em>not</em> involved in extracurricular activities.
120 - 84 = 36
