Question

Solve for m: -2/9m + 12 = -8

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

$\rm \rightharpoonup \: \frac{ - 2}{9}m + 12 = - 8 \\ \rm \rightharpoonup \: \frac{ - 2}{9} m = - 8 - 12 \\ \rm \rightharpoonup \: \frac{ - 2}{9} m = - 20 \\ \rm \rightharpoonup \: m = \frac{ - 20 \times 9}{ - 2} \\ \rm \rightharpoonup \: m = 10 \times 9 \\ \rm \rightharpoonup \: m = 90$

Answer 2

Answer:

90

Step-by-step explanation:

−2/9m+12=−8

Step 1: Subtract 12 from both sides.

−2/9m+12−12=−8−12

−2/9m=−20

Step 2: Multiply both sides by 9/(-2).

(9/−2)*(−2/9m)=(9/−2)*(−20)

m=90
