O 20
O 32
O 44
O 48

Answer 1

Answer: 44

Explanation:

Hi there,

I hope you and your family are staying safe and healthy during this anomalous time.

1/2 m - 3/4n = 16 when n = 8

First, we need to substitute n = 8 from the equation

1/2 m - 3/4(8) = 16

1/2 m - 24/4 = 16

1/2 m - 6 = 16

Then we need to transfer the negative 6 to the other side, which will turn into a positive

1/2 m = 16 + 6

1/2 m = 22

Now we solve for m

m = 22/2

m = 44

Therefore, the answer is C (44)

Happy to help!
