m%2B4=-m%2B10 Start with the given equation.


m=-m%2B10-4 Subtract 4 from both sides.


m%2Bm=10-4 Add m to both sides.


2m=10-4 Combine like terms on the left side.


2m=6 Combine like terms on the right side.


m=%286%29%2F%282%29 Divide both sides by 2 to isolate m.


m=3 Reduce.

Answer:

So the solution is m=3

m+4=-m+10

Add "m" to both sides to get:
2m+4 = 10
Subtract 4 from both sides to get:
2m = 6
Divide both sides by 2 to get:
m = 3
