Question

solve the problem by verifying it​

Answer 1

Answer:

m = 17.5

Step-by-step explanation:

given, (m-8) / (m+1.5) = 0.5

=> m-8 = 0.5(m+1.5)

=> m-8 = (1/2)(m+1.5)

=> 2(m-8) = (m+1.5)

=> 2m - 16 = m + 1.5

=> 2m - m = 1.5+16

=> m = 17.5

Answer 2

Answer: The answer is 14.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

= m-8 = 0.5

m+1.5

= m-8 = 0.5(m+1.5)

= m-8 = 0.5m + 0.75

= m-0.5m = 0.75+8

= 0.5m = 8.75

= m = 8.75

0.5

= m = 875 × 10

5 × 100

= m = 875

50

= m = 14.5. Answer
