Answer:
6m + -2 = 4m + 8
Reorder the terms:
-2 + 6m = 4m + 8
Reorder the terms:
-2 + 6m = 8 + 4m
Solving
-2 + 6m = 8 + 4m
Solving for variable 'm'.
Move all terms containing m to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-4m' to each side of the equation.
-2 + 6m + -4m = 8 + 4m + -4m
Combine like terms: 6m + -4m = 2m
-2 + 2m = 8 + 4m + -4m
Combine like terms: 4m + -4m = 0
-2 + 2m = 8 + 0
-2 + 2m = 8
Add '2' to each side of the equation.
-2 + 2 + 2m = 8 + 2
Combine like terms: -2 + 2 = 0
0 + 2m = 8 + 2
2m = 8 + 2
Combine like terms: 8 + 2 = 10
2m = 10
Divide each side by '2'.
m = 5
Simplifying
m = 5
