Question 887127: Which of the following equations are equivalent to -2m - 5m - 8 = 3 + (-7) + m?
-15m = -4m
-7m - 8 = m - 4
-3m - 8 = 4 - m
m - 4 = -7m - 8
-8 - 7m = -4 + m
-8 - 3m = 4 - m
I don't understand how to get my chose's its many options i can pick but didn't know how to solve for them . Found 2 solutions by josgarithmetic, rothauserc:Answer by josgarithmetic(39617) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Just simplify each equation and put into the same format. Comparison will then be easy to do.
Your given equation to start is ;
Solution steps for that
Or even further, .
Your choices are equations using just m to power 1 and constants. Any which have solution of are equivalent to your given equation.
You can put this solution on YOUR website! -2m - 5m - 8 = 3 + (-7) + m =
-7m -8 = -4 +m
equivalent equations are
-7m - 8 = m - 4
m - 4 = -7m - 8
-8 - 7m = -4 + m
