Question

solve -15 = -4m + 5

find m

Show work.

Answer 1

Answer:

m=5

Step-by-step explanation:

-15=-4m+5

Then, Subtract 5 from both sides

-20=-4m

Then, divide -4 from both sides

-20/-4=-4/-4m

  5    =    m

Answer 2

Answer:

m = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

-15 = -4m + 5

Isolate -4m by subtrcting 5 on both sides

-15 - 5 = -4m + -5

-20 = -4m

Isolate m by dividing -4 on both sides

-20/-4 = -4m/-4

5 = m

So m equals 5
