I hope this helps you



4m+2.m+2.1=9m+5


6m+2=9m+5


9m-6m=2-5


3m= -3


m= -1

Answer: The value of 'm' is - 1.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to find the value of 'm' from the following equation:


4m+2(m+1)=9m+5.

The solution is as follows:


4m+2(m+1)=9m+5\\\\\Rightarrow 4m+2m+2=9m+5\\\\\Rightarrow 6m+2=9m+5\\\\\Rightarrow 6m-9m=5-2\\\\\Rightarrow -3m=3\\\\\Rightarrow m=(3)/(-3)\\\\\Rightarrow m=-1.

Thus, the required value of 'm' is - 1.
