first step is to subtract 21 from both sides
2m+21-21=3-21
2m=-18
2m/2 and -18/2
m=-9
So the final answer is m=-9 (negative nine equals m)

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define Systems</u>
y = 4x - 18
y = -5x + 9
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
<em>Substitution</em>
- Substitute in <em>y</em> [2nd Equation]: 4x - 18 = -5x + 9
- [Addition Property of Equality] Add 5x on both sides: 9x - 18 = 9
- [Addition Property of Equality] Add 18 on both sides: 9x = 27
- [Division Property of Equality] Divide 9 on both sides: x = 3
<u>Step 3: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em>
- Substitute in <em>x</em> [1st Equation]: y = 4(3) - 18
- Multiply: y = 12 - 18
- Subtract: y = -6
