Question

i) The variable in the given equation 4m+6=8 is ____​

Answer 1

Simplifying

4m + 6 = 8

Reorder the terms:

6 + 4m = 8

Solving

6 + 4m = 8

Solving for variable 'm'.

Move all terms containing m to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-6' to each side of the equation.

6 + -6 + 4m = 8 + -6

Combine like terms: 6 + -6 = 0

0 + 4m = 8 + -6

4m = 8 + -6

Combine like terms: 8 + -6 = 2

4m = 2

Divide each side by '4'.

m = 0.5

Simplifying

m = 0.5

Answer 2

Answer:

0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Add '-6' to each side of the equation.

6 + -6 + 4m = 8 + -6

Combine like terms: 6 + -6 = 0

0 + 4m = 8 + -6

4m = 8 + -6

Combine like terms: 8 + -6 = 2

4m = 2

Divide each side by '4'.

m = 0.5

Simplifying

m = 0.5
