Answer:

m = 7

Explanation:

To answer this question, we first have to simplify each side of the equation:

10m - 3 (2m - 9) = 9 (m - 1) + 1

10m - 6m + 27 = 9m - 9 + 1

4m + 27 = 9m - 8

Now, we have to take the 8 away from the right side by adding it onto the left side:

4m + 27 = 9m - 8

+8 +8

4m + 35 = 9m

Now, we subtract 4m from the left side in order keep the variable on one side:

4m + 35 = 9m

-4m -4m

35 = 5m

Finally, we divide 35 by 5 to isolate the variable:

5m = 35

/5 /5

m = 7

And now we now that m = 7

Hope this helps! :)
