HELP ASAP!!!

Solve for m in the following equation.

4m/3= 8
m= 10
m= 6
m= 2
m= 96


You buy three more than twice as many pounds of apples as bananas. If you bought seven pounds of apples, how many pounds of bananas did you buy?

What is the correct equation and solution for this problem?

3p – 2 = 7; p = 3 pounds
2p – 3 = 7; p = 5 pounds
3p + 2 = 7; p = 3 pounds
2p + 3 = 7; p = 2 pounds

Thank you!!

Answer:

1. STEPS FOR SOLVING LINEAR EQUATION


(4m)/(3) = 8

Multiply both sides by 3.

4m=8×3

Multiply 8 and 3 to get 24.

4m=24

Divide both sides by 4.


m = (24)/(4)

Divide 24 by 4 to get 6.

m=6

2. 2p+3=7; p=2 pounds
