We have the following equation given:


-8+5m-14=-5+m+7m

And we need to solve for m. So we can start aggrupating the terms like this:


-22+5m=-5+8m

Now we can subtract 5m from both sides of the equation and we got:


-22=-5+3m

And now we can add 5 in both sides of the equation and we got:


-17=3m

And dividing by 3 got this:


undefined
