Answer: 5.4

Step-by-step explanation:3 (m-2)-5=8-2 (m-4)

Simplifying

3(m + -2) + -5 = 8 + -2(m + -4)

Reorder the terms:

3(-2 + m) + -5 = 8 + -2(m + -4)

(-2 * 3 + m * 3) + -5 = 8 + -2(m + -4)

(-6 + 3m) + -5 = 8 + -2(m + -4)

Reorder the terms:

-6 + -5 + 3m = 8 + -2(m + -4)

Combine like terms: -6 + -5 = -11

-11 + 3m = 8 + -2(m + -4)

Reorder the terms:

-11 + 3m = 8 + -2(-4 + m)

-11 + 3m = 8 + (-4 * -2 + m * -2)

-11 + 3m = 8 + (8 + -2m)

Combine like terms: 8 + 8 = 16

-11 + 3m = 16 + -2m

Solving

-11 + 3m = 16 + -2m

Solving for variable 'm'.

Move all terms containing m to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '2m' to each side of the equation.

-11 + 3m + 2m = 16 + -2m + 2m

Combine like terms: 3m + 2m = 5m

-11 + 5m = 16 + -2m + 2m

Combine like terms: -2m + 2m = 0

-11 + 5m = 16 + 0

-11 + 5m = 16

Add '11' to each side of the equation.

-11 + 11 + 5m = 16 + 11

Combine like terms: -11 + 11 = 0

0 + 5m = 16 + 11

5m = 16 + 11

Combine like terms: 16 + 11 = 27

5m = 27

Divide each side by '5'.

m = 5.4

Simplifying

m = 5.4

What is the math term for you taking parentheses away?
TEA [102]

You might be thinking of "distribution" or "distributive property"

Example:

2(3x+5) = 2*3x+2*5 = 6x+10

I multiplied the outer 2 by each term inside (3x and 5)

Answer:

1: x=23.313708 2: B x = -13.2 3: x = 152

All the problems examples at the bottom

Step-by-step explanation:

1: 12x=−3(4−x)

12x=3x−12

Step 1: Divide both sides by 12.

12x12=3x−1212

x=14x−1

Step 2: Solve Square Root.

x=14x−1

x=(14x−1)2(Square both sides)

x=116x2+−12x+1

x−(116x2+−12x+1)=116x2+−12x+1−(116x2+−12x+1)(Subtract 1/16x^2+(-1)/2x+1 from both sides)

−116x2+32x−1=0

x=−b±b2−4ac2a(Use quadratic formula with a=-0.0625, b=1.5, c=-1)

x=−(1.5)±(1.5)2−4(−0.0625)(−1)2(−0.0625)

x=−1.5±2−0.125

x=0.6862915010152388,23.31370849898476

2: 3+2.7x=9.6+3.2x

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

2.7x+3=3.2x+9.6

Step 2: Subtract 3.2x from both sides.

2.7x+3−3.2x=3.2x+9.6−3.2x

−0.5x+3=9.6

Step 3: Subtract 3 from both sides.

−0.5x+3−3=9.6−3

−0.5x=6.6

Step 4: Divide both sides by -0.5.

−0.5x−0.5=6.6−0.5

x=−13.2

3: 9+34x=78x−10

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

9+34x=78x−10

9+34x=78x+−10

34x+9=78x−10

Step 2: Subtract 7/8x from both sides.

34x+9−78x=78x−10−78x

−18x+9=−10

Step 3: Subtract 9 from both sides.

−18x+9−9=−10−9

−18x=−19

Step 4: Multiply both sides by 8/(-1).

(8−1)*(−18x)=(8−1)*(−19)

x=152

I really hope this helped you
