Question

Can some one please help me with this question 1/m=m-34/2m^2
?

Answer 1

\[\frac{ 1 }{ m } = \frac{ m-4 }{ 2m^2 }\]

You mean this?
So.. what will we do? Find the value of m?

Answer 2

can you explain to me how to do it like by steps ?

Answer 3

yes that is what i meant find the value of m

Answer 4

Okay..

Answer 5

cross multiply.

1(2m^2) = m(m-34)

2m^2 * 1 = m * (m - 34)
2m^2 = m^2 - 34m
m^2 + 34m = 0
m(m + 34) = 0
m = 0 or m + 34 = 0
m = 0 or m = -34

since its a denom., so m = -34.

thankyou so much

Answer 7
