Question

–2(m – 30) = –6m

Answer 1

First, distribute the -2 over the (m-30)

Answer 2

To get \[-2m+60=-6m\]

Answer 3

First, you distribute the -2 over, resulting in" \[-2m + 60\]
Next, isolate m by adding 2m to both sides, resulting in \[60 = -4m\]
After this, divide by -4 on both sides and you should have your answer for m.
Check your work by plugging in your answer for m into the original equation and seeing if it balances out.

Answer 4

-2(m-30)=-6m
distribute da -2
-2m-30=-6m
subtract da -2m
-30=4m
divide by 4
-7.5=m
