Question

Need help need this done

Answer 1

-12

Explanation:

−5(3m+6)=−3(4m−2)

(−5)(3m)+(−5)(6)=(−3)(4m)+(−3)(−2)(Distribute)

−15m+−30=−12m+6

−15m−30=−12m+6

Step 2: Add 12m to both sides.

−15m−30+12m=−12m+6+12m

−3m−30=6

Step 3: Add 30 to both sides.

−3m−30+30=6+30

−3m=36

Step 4: Divide both sides by -3.

−3m

−3

=

36

−3

m=−12

Answer 2

`\huge\boxed{m=-12}`

Explanation:

In order to solve for this equation, we can simplify this expression until we have m isolated on one side of it.

`-5(3m+6)=-3(4m-2)`

Distribute the left and right side:

`-15m-30=-12m+6`

Add 30 to both sides:

`-15m=-12m+36`

Add 12m to both sides:

`-3m=36`

Divide both sides by -3:

`m = -12`

So m = -12.
