Question

Solve the equation and check the result:
3m + 2(m − 2) = 26 − (2m − 5)​

Answer 1

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

or, 3m + 2(m − 2) = 26 − (2m − 5)​

or, 3m + 2m - 4 = 26 - 2m + 5

or, 5m - 4 = 31 - 2m

or, 5m + 2m = 31 + 4

or, 7m = 35

or, m = 35/7

or, m = 5

Answer = 5

Answer 2

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

3m + 2(m − 2) = 26 − (2m − 5)

We multiplied 2*m , 2*2 ​and -1 * 2m and -1*-5

3m + 2m - 4 = 26 -2m + 5

5m - 4 = 2m + 31

Transferring things (sorry i dont know the term used)

5m + 2m = 31+ 4

7m = 35

m = 35/7

35/7 = 5

Checking

3*5 + 2(5-2) = 26 - (2*5 - 5)

15 + 10 - 4 = 26 - 10 + 5

21 = 21

Checked

It took me a long time so hope it helps
