Are you finding m? If so here is the answer:
75 = -5(3 + 6m)
Distribute:
75 = -15 - 30m
Add 15 to both sides:
75 = -15 - 30m
+15 +15
90 = -30m
Divide by -30 on both sides:
90/-30 = (-30m)/-30
You should get: m = -3

Answer:
5 months
Step-by-step explanation:
Equate the formulas for the weights of the two boys:
J's weight = 120 lb + (10 lb/mo)m = D's weight = 150 lb + (4 lb/mo)m
Solve as follows: Subtract 120 lb from both sides:
(10 lb/mo)m = 30 lb + (4 lb/mo)m.
Then: (6 lb/mo)m = 30 lb, and m = (30 lb) / (6 lb/mo) = 5 months
