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.
The correct answer is 64 square units.
The area of the complete shape would be 100 square inches.
10 x 10 = 100
However, we have to remove the 4 corners. Each of the corners is 9 square inches. 3 x 3 = 9
100 - 4(9) = 64
Answer: Exact form: 94133 / 41877. Mixed number form: 2 10379 / 41877
Step-by-step explanation: divide 145 and 891. Then add 153. Then divide again 141 and 153. Then add 1/1.
