Answer:

=4

Explanation:

Add the numbers : 5 m - 4 = m + 4 + m + 4

5m - 4 = m + 8 + m

Combine like terms: 5m - 4 = m + 8 + m

5m - 4 = 2m + 8

Add 4 to both sides of the equation: 5m - 4 = 2m + 8

5m- 4 + 4 = 2m + 8 + 4

Answer:


\rm{m=4

Explanation:

Hi there!

Combine Like Terms:

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

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

5m-4=2m+8

Now, move all the numbers to the right, using the opposite operation:

5m=2m+8+4

5m=2m+12

Now, move 2m to the left:

5m-2m=12

3m=12

Divide both sides by 3:

m=4

Thus,
\rm{m=4 is our final answer.
