Question

Two step equation

m - 13/2 = -8

Answer 1

Hi, there.

____

» Multiply each term by 2.

`\boldsymbol{2m-13=-16}`

» Add 13 to both sides.

`\boldsymbol{2m=-3}`

» Divide both sides by 2.

`\boldsymbol{m=-(3)/(2)}`

Hope the answer - and explanation - made sense,

happy studying!!

Answer 2

m = -8 + 13/2

m = -16/2 + 13/2

m = -3/2
