You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Here is the original question
\n" ); document.write( "(i) \"3m%2B4=19-2n\"
\n" ); document.write( "I notice you have two variables here. ALso M is next to the n on the keyboard, so it could be one variable. We have four options. Hopefully one of these will answer your question.
\n" ); document.write( "--
\n" ); document.write( "option 1 - solve (i) for m
\n" ); document.write( "\"3m%2B4=19-2n\"
\n" ); document.write( "subtract 4 from both sides to get
\n" ); document.write( "\"3m+=+19+-+4+-2n\"
\n" ); document.write( "divide by 3 to get
\n" ); document.write( "\"m+=+%28-2%2F3%29n+%2B+5\"
\n" ); document.write( "--
\n" ); document.write( "option 2 - solve (i) for n
\n" ); document.write( "\"3m%2B4=19-2n\"
\n" ); document.write( "subtract 19 from both sides to get
\n" ); document.write( "\"3m+%2B+4+-+19+=+-2n\"
\n" ); document.write( "divide by -2 to get
\n" ); document.write( "\"n+=+%28-3%2F2%29n+-+15%2F2\"
\n" ); document.write( "--
\n" ); document.write( "option 3 - m=n solve (i) for m
\n" ); document.write( "\"3m%2B4=19-2m\"
\n" ); document.write( "subtract 4 from both sides to get
\n" ); document.write( "\"3m+=+19+-+4+-2m\"
\n" ); document.write( "add 2m to both sides to get
\n" ); document.write( "\"5m+=+15\"
\n" ); document.write( "divide by 5 to get
\n" ); document.write( "\"m+=+3\"
\n" ); document.write( "--
\n" ); document.write( "option 4 - m=n solve (i) for n
