The equation would be worded as: 2m+16=36.
Solve! Using the subtraction property of equality, 2m=20. Then the division property of equality lets us figure out that m=10.
Substitute 4 for y. Then -3x^2 + 16 = 52.
Solve for x. Subtract 16 from both sides, obtaining -3x^2 = 36.
Divide both sides by -3, obtaining x^2 = -12. This last result makes no sense, as no square of a real number could be negative. Probably this is where you're ":getting a negative answer."
If imaginary answers were allowed, then x = i*√12 = i*2√3 or x = -i*2√3.

Answer:
3rd
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = -9
Step-by-step explanation:
Normally 18/2 is 9, but since we’re dividing by a negative, the 9 becomes negative.
So 18/-2 is -9.
