Answer:

m=40

Explanation:

first write out the equation as shown:

-5+m/2=15

next, add 5 to both sides to isolate the term with the variable:

-5+5+m/2=15+5 which then simplifies to m/2=20

finally multiply both sides by 2 to get rid of the fraction and isolate the variable completely:

2(m/2)=(20)2 which simplifies to m=40

therefore, the solutiojn to this equation is m=40.
