Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

9m - m + 3 = -2(m + 1)

Step 2: Solve for m

1. Combine like terms:                    8m + 3 = -2(m + 1)
2. Distribute -2:                                8m + 3 = -2m - 2
3. Add 2m on both sides:                10m + 3 = -2
4. Isolate m term:                             10m = -5
5. Isolate m:                                      m = -1/2
