Answer:

I believe to answer to m would be 4

Explanation:

Given knowing that 2m + 5 is equal to 13, you could always subtract to find m.

13 - 5 = 8

Given 8, we know that any number multiplying by 2 would have the answer of 8. You could divide 8 by 2 to find your missing variable.

8 ÷ 2 = 4

Which leaves you with 4, which means 4 is your missing variable.

m = 4

13 = 2(4) + 5
