Question

solve the equation 3m+4=8m+24
​

Answer 1

Answer:

$3m+ 4 = 8m + 24$

$3m - 8m = 24 - 4$

$- 5m = 20$

When, negative integers go to their opposite sides they change their sign!

$m = \frac{20}{5}$

$m = 4$

Answer 2

Answer:

3m + 4 = 8m + 24

3m - 8m = 24- 4

- 5m = 20

- m= 20/5

m= -4
