Question

Solve the equation −11=−3m+7

Answer 1

m = 6

Explanation:

-11 = -3m + 7

Multiply -1 on both sides

11 = 3m - 7

11 + 7 = 3m

18 = 3m

18/3 = m

m = 6

Answer 2

m = 6

Explanation:

Step 1: Write out equation

-11 = -3m + 7

Step 2: Subtract 7 on both sides

-18 = -3m

Step 3: Divide both sides by -3

6 = m

Step 4: Rewrite

m = 6
