Question

Pre algebra what is -19-6m=-m-8(5-2m)

Answer 1

Answer: m=1

Step-by-step explanation:

-19-6m= -m-40+16m

Add 40 to both sides then add 6m to both sides you’ll get: 21=21m

Divide my 21 and you’ll get your answer which is 1 :)

Answer 2

Answer:

m=1

Step-by-step explanation:

1st, distribute the -8 on the right side in the paranthesis.

-19-6m=-m-40+16m

Since the 8 is a negative, -2m x -8 = positive 16m

2nd, group the m's on 1 side, and numbers on the other.

-19+40= -m+16m+6m

40 becomes positive and 6m become negative as they switch sides.

3rd, simplify both sides.

21=21m

Finally, divide both sides by 21.

1=m

Good Luck!

Steps:

1. -19-6m=-m-8(5-2m)   (Next, multiply 5 and -2m by -8.)

2. -19-6m=-m-40+16m   (Next, group the #'s and m's together.)

3. -19+40=-m+16m+6m  (Next, simplify both sides.)

4. 21=21m  (Next, divide both sides by 21.)

5. 1=m

Your answer is m=1.
