Answer: m=−3
Step-by-step explanation: −40−2(3m+1/2)=7m−2
−40+(−2)(3m)+(−2)(1/2)=7m+−2
−40+−6m+−1=7m+−2
(−6m)+(−40+−1)=7m−2
−6m+−41=7m−2
−6m−41−7m=7m−2−7m
−13m−41+41=−2+41
−13m/−13=39/−13
m=−3
What mistake I guess Keith did make is he subtracted 2 from -39 which equaled to -37 which caused him divide -37 by 13 when it should have been 39 divided by 13 because he should have left 39 alone and not have subtracted 2 from it also it should not have been negative basically what I'm trying to say is that he did his division and subtraction wrong.

<h3>Define the meaning of the equation?</h3>
A mathematical assertion in which you use mathematical symbols to demonstrate that two sums are equal.
As per specified data-
- Marcus wishes to save $378 so that he can purchase a new electronic keyboard.
- Every week, he saves $15.75 from his paycheck.
Let 'x' be the number of weeks required to complete the amount.
The equation becomes.
378 = 15.75x
For the number of week required.
x = 378/15.75
x = 24
Thus, Marcus would need to save for 24 weeks in order to purchase a new electronic keyboard.
