8th grader here, what do you need help with?
Remove parentheses
3m - 7m+12 = 2 m-3
collect like terms
3m-7m-12 = 2m-6
move terms
-4m - 12 = 2m-6
collect the like terms and calculate
-4m-2m = -6+12
divide both sides by -6
-6m=6
m= -1

Step-by-step explanation:
Number of shares
1050/10=105
After one year share value
10×(1+0.13)=11.3
After the second year share value
11.3×(1−0.05)=10.735
Total
10.735×105=1,127.175
400 - 2 x Age = 244
-2*Age = -156
Age = 78 years
