Given:


2m+2m\\e4m^2

Required:

We need to fin\gt\ht the value of m that proves that 2m + 2m is not equivalent to 4m^2.

Step-by-step explanation:


2m+2m\\e4m^2


4m\\e4m^2

Substitute m =0 in the equation.


4(0)\\e4(0)^2
0\\e0

This is not true.

So m =0 does not prove that 2m + 2m is not equivalent to 4m^2

Substitute m =1 in the equaiton.


4(1)\\e4(1)^2
4\\e4

This is not true.

So m =1 does not prove that 2m + 2m is not equivalent to 4m^2

Substitute m =2 in the equaiton.


4(2)\\e4(2)^2


8\\e16

This is true.

So m =2 proves that 2m + 2m is not equivalent to 4m^2

Final answer:


m=2
