Question

Solve for m:


`2=(m)/(2) -7`

Answer 1

Hello! :D

Answer:

`\boxed{m=18}\checkmark`

*The answer should have a positive sign.*

Explanation:

First, you do is switch sides.

`(m)/(2)-7=2`

Then, you add by 7 from both sides.

`(m)/(2)-7+7=2+7`

Add numbers from left to right.

`2+7=9`

`(m)/(2)=9`

Multiply by 2 from both sides.

`(2m)/(2)=9*2`

Finally, multiply numbers from left to right.

`9*2=18`

m=18 is the correct answer.

I hope this helps you!

Have a wonderful day! :)

Answer 2

m= 18

Explanation:

Move all terms not containing "m" to the right side of the equation.

m/2 - 7= 2

Add +7 to each side.

m/2 - 7 = 2

+7 +7

Add 2 and 7.

m/2= 9

Multiply both sides of the equation by 2

m= 9 (2)

Simplify.

m= 18
