Question

How to write out and solve 5m-1=4m+5 and show work

Answer 1

Answer: m=6

Step by step equation:

5m-1=4m+5
-4m -4m

m-1=5
+1 +1

m=6

Answer 2

Explanation:

`5m - 1 = 4m + 5`

First let's add 1 to both sides:

`5m - 1 + 1 = 4m + 5 + 1`

`5m = 4m + 6`

Next, let's subtract
`4m` from both sides

`5m - 4m = 4m - 4m + 6`

`m = 6`
