\n" ); document.write( "This is the problem, 9-2m/7=19
\n" ); document.write( "I minused 9 from both sides and got -2m/7=10 I am trying to isolate m so I did the inverse of 2m/7 and got m-10

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Solve for m:
\n" ); document.write( "\"9-%282m%2F7%29+=+19\" Subtract 9 from both sides. You were ok on this step!
\n" ); document.write( "\"-2m%2F7+=+10\" Now multiply both sides by 7.
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28-2m%2Fcross%287%29%29%2Across%28%287%29%29+=+7%2A10\" Simplify.
\n" ); document.write( "\"-2m+=+70\" Finally, divide both sides by -2.
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28m+=+-35%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "
