Answer:


m=-(33)/(14)

Explanation:


4m-(3)/(4)=-9+(4m)/(8)


(4m-(3)/(4))8=(-9+(4m)/(8))8 multiply by 8 to get rid of the largest denominator


32m-(24)/(4)=-72+4m


32m-6=-72+4m


32m-4m=-72+6 Rearrange the equation and Collect like-terms


28m=-66


m=-(66)/(28) simplify


m=-(33)/(14)

Answer:

The answer is -2 5/14 if you're trying to solve for m

Explanation:

first you get rid of the fractions by mutiplying both sides by 4.

4(4m-3/4)=(-9+4m/8)4

16m-3=-36+2m then you put the varible terms on one side and the numbers on one side

14m=-33

then divide -33 by 14

which will give you the fraction -2 5/14 unless you want decimal form which would be around -2.36
