Answer 3

please clarify sorry i'm dense

Answer 4

What is the question?

Answer 5

You cannot find teh value of m because if you simplify you get
-2 = 0
Which is incorrect obviously.

Answer 6

-2=m(2-2)
-2=m(0)=0
-2=0?!!!!
It's Incorrect

Answer 7

one way i did it was i combined like terms, so i just put the two 2m's together and got 4m and subtracted four from both sides of the equation and got 1=m but i'm not sre if i did it right?

Answer 8

2m-2m is not equal to 4m....

Answer 9

Answer 12

what what do i think about if you guys know the answer or what do i think about the problem

Answer 13

Did you try to do it at least. It's a simple problem for me but you have to learn to do it so that you can handle similar problems

Answer 14

Can you simplify 2x+2x?

Answer 15

no

Answer 16

What is 2+2?

Answer 17

2x+2x=12
x(2+2)=12
4x=12
x=12/4=3
x=3

Answer 18

..4..

Answer 19

So what is 2x+2x?

Answer 20

4x?

Answer 21

Yup. So now you have
4x = 12.
And you want x on it's own to get the value of x. You know what to do now?

Answer 22

divide by four?

Answer 23

on both sides?

Answer 24

There you go :)

Answer 25

-2=2m-2m

+2m and -2m will be cancelled
So,
-2=0

Therfore no solution.
