Which of the following equations are equivalent to -2m - 5m - 8 = 3 + (-7) + m?

-15m = -4m
-7m - 8 = m - 4
-3m - 8 = 4 - m
m - 4 = -7m - 8
-8 - 7m = -4 + m
-8 - 3m = 4 - m

To solve this problem, we must simplify the the equation:
Here is the base equation -2m - 5m - 8 = 3 + (-7) + m (Add all like terms):

#1 -2m - 5m - 8 = 3 + (-7) + m (Property of Addition)
#2 -7m - 8 = -4 + m (Most Simplified Equation)

The answer your would be the 2nd one.
-7m - 8 = m - 4

If I helped you out, please give me a gold crown. :)
