Question

Rearrange the equation so n is the independent variable.
3m-2n=12

Answer 1

M= 3/2n+4

Explanation:

Answer 2

`\displaystyle m = (2)/(3) n + 4`

Explanation:

we are given a equation

we want to make n the independent variable

to do so

move -2n to right hand side and change its sign:

`\displaystyle 3m = 12 + 2n`

divide both sides by 3:

`\displaystyle m = (12 + 2n)/(3)`

further simplification is needed:

`\displaystyle m = (12 )/(3) + (2n)/(3)`

`\displaystyle m = (2)/(3) n + 4`

now m depends on n and n can be any value so we have rearranged n to independent variable

and we are done!
