Well then you need to use inverse operations. SO......
Since it is addition you do subtraction.
-18 - 12
-18 + -12
-30 SOOOOO.......
-30 + 12 = -18
-18 = -18
M = -30
answer: [tex]m = -1.2[/tex]
work:
[tex]5m + 12 = -18[/tex] | subtract the 12 over to the -18, and solve.
[tex]5m = -6 [/tex] | divide by 5m on both sides, and solve.
[tex]m = -1.2[/tex] | final answer.
hope this helps! ❤ from peachimin
