\text{Solve:}\\\\(15m+3)/(2)=-6\\\\\text{Multiply both sides by 2}\\\\15m+3=-12\\\\\text{Subtract 3 from both sides}\\\\15m=-15\\\\\text{Divide both sides by 15}\\\\\boxed{m=-1}

Answer:

m = - 1

Explanation:

Given


(15m+3)/(2) = - 6

Multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction

15m + 3 = - 12 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

15m = - 15 ( divide both sides by 15 )

m = - 1
