Answer:
m=-21

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve the exercise, you need to remember the following properties:

1. Addition property of equality:

If
a=b, then
a+c=b+c

2. Subtraction property of equality:

If
a=b, then
a-c=b-c

3. Divison property of equality:

If
a=b, then
(a)/(c)=(b)/(c)

4. Multiplication property of equality:

If
a=b, then
a*c=b*c

Then, given the following equation:


9+(m)/(3)=2

You need to followw these steps in order solve for "m":

- Apply the Subtraction property of equality subtracting 9 from both sides of the equation:


9+(m)/(3)-9=2-9\\\\(m)/(3)=-7

- Apply the Multiplication property of equality multiplying both sides of the equation by 3. Then, you get:


(3)((m)/(3))=(-7)(3)\\\\m=-21
