Answer:

Explanation:

Simplifying

8m + 13 = 13 + 8m

Reorder the terms:

13 + 8m = 13 + 8m

Add '-13' to each side of the equation.

13 + -13 + 8m = 13 + -13 + 8m

Combine like terms: 13 + -13 = 0

0 + 8m = 13 + -13 + 8m

8m = 13 + -13 + 8m

Combine like terms: 13 + -13 = 0

8m = 0 + 8m

8m = 8m

Add '-8m' to each side of the equation.

8m + -8m = 8m + -8m

Combine like terms: 8m + -8m = 0

0 = 8m + -8m

Combine like terms: 8m + -8m = 0

0 = 0

Solving

0 = 0

\text{Hey there!}


\mathsf{Simplify\ both\ sides\ of\ the\ equation}


\mathsf{8m+13=8m+13}


\mathsf{Subtract\ by\ 8x\ on\ your\ sides}


\mathsf{8m+13-8m=8m+13-8m}


\mathsf{Cancel: 8m - 8m\ because\ it\ equals\ to\ 0}


\mathsf{Also\ cancel\ out: 8m-8m\ because\ it\ ALSO\ equals\ to\ 0}


\mathsf{Which\ converts\ to: 13=13}


\mathsf{Subtract\ by\ 13\ from\ your\ sides}


\mathsf{13-13=13-13}


\mathsf{13-13=0}


\mathsf{13-13=0}


\mathsf{Converts\ to: 0=0}


\boxed{\boxed{\mathsf{Thus\ your\ answer\ is: All\ real\ numbers\ are\ solutions}}}\mathsf{\checkmark}


\text{Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!}
