Answer:
Simplifying
5 + (m + -2) = 20
Reorder the terms:
5 + (-2 + m) = 20
Remove parenthesis around (-2 + m)
5 + -2 + m = 20
Combine like terms: 5 + -2 = 3
3 + m = 20
Solving
3 + m = 20
Solving for variable 'm'.
Move all terms containing m to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-3' to each side of the equation.
3 + -3 + m = 20 + -3
Combine like terms: 3 + -3 = 0
0 + m = 20 + -3
m = 20 + -3
Combine like terms: 20 + -3 = 17
m = 17
Simplifying
m = 17
