Question

Solve for m. Then find the value of m for each value of n.

m + 3n = 7; n = -2, 0, 1

Answer 1

We have,
\(m+3n=7\)

To solve for m, we would simply subtract \(3n\) from both sides.
\(m=-3n+7\)

Then we would plug in the values for \(n\) of -2,0,1.
\(m=-3(-2)+7=~?\)
\(m=-3(0)+7=~?\)
\(m=-3(1)+7=~?\)

Answer 2

Does this make sense @ElmerHigglesworth ?

Answer 3

I'm sure it does, but my primitive 8th grader brain is losing power.

Answer 4

What does the first equation of \(m\) equal?

\(m=-3(-2)+7\)
