m = 5
Rearrange:
Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :
2*m-(10)=0
Step by step solution :
Step 1 :
Pulling out like terms :
1.1 Pull out like factors :
2m - 10 = 2 • (m - 5)
Equation at the end of step 1 :
Step 2 :
Equations which are never true :
2.1 Solve : 2 = 0
This equation has no solution.
A a non-zero constant never equals zero.
Solving a Single Variable Equation :
2.2 Solve : m-5 = 0
Add 5 to both sides of the equation :
m = 5
therefore: m = 5
