Simplifying
8.7 = 3.5m + -2.5(5.4 + -6m)
8.7 = 3.5m + (5.4 * -2.5 + -6m * -2.5)
8.7 = 3.5m + (-13.5 + 15m)
Reorder the terms:
8.7 = -13.5 + 3.5m + 15m
Combine like terms: 3.5m + 15m = 18.5m
8.7 = -13.5 + 18.5m
Solving
8.7 = -13.5 + 18.5m
Solving for variable 'm'.
Move all terms containing m to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-18.5m' to each side of the equation.
8.7 + -18.5m = -13.5 + 18.5m + -18.5m
Combine like terms: 18.5m + -18.5m = 0.0
8.7 + -18.5m = -13.5 + 0.0
8.7 + -18.5m = -13.5
Add '-8.7' to each side of the equation.
8.7 + -8.7 + -18.5m = -13.5 + -8.7
Combine like terms: 8.7 + -8.7 = 0.0
0.0 + -18.5m = -13.5 + -8.7
-18.5m = -13.5 + -8.7
Combine like terms: -13.5 + -8.7 = -22.2
-18.5m = -22.2
Divide each side by '-18.5'.
m = 1.2
Simplifying
m = 1.2

Answer:
Check boxes 3, 4, 6, and 8.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the equation:
And we want to select all equations that are perpendicular to the above equation.
Remember that perpendicular lines have slopes who are negative reciprocals of each other.
Therefore, the slope of our equations must be the negative reciprocal of -3.
The negative reciprocal of -3 is 1/3. We flipped -3 to -1/3, and then multiplied by a negative.
Therefore, any equation with a slope of 1/3 is perpendicular to our original line.
Therefore, we will check boxes 3, 4, 6, and 8.
