Answer: -4 (m + 6) = -8

We can use the distributive property for the first half of the equation.

-4 × m = -4m

-4 × 6 = -24

-4m - 24 = -8

Now we add 24 on bothe side sof the equation to get -4m by itself.

-4m - 24 + 24 = -8 + 24

Now we get -4m = 16

Divide -4 on both sides to get m by itself

-4m/-4 = 16/-4

Simplify and we get m = -4
