answer m=38
2(+1)=3(−12)
Distribute
2(+1)=3(−12) ={2(m+1)}}=3(m-12)
2+2=3(−12)
Distribute
2+2=3(−12)2m+2={3(m-12)}}
2+2=3−36
subtract 2 from both sides of the equation
2 + 2 = 3 − 3 6
2m+2=3m-36 2 + 2 − 2 = 3 − 3 6 − 2
2m+2{-2}}=3m-36{-2}}
Simplify
subtract the numbers
2m+2-2=3m-36-2
2m=3m-36-2
subtract the numbers
2m=3m-36-2
2m=3m-38
Subtract 3 from both sides of the equation
2 = 3 − 3 8
2m=-3m=3 − 3 = 3 − 3 8 − 3m
