Question

Solve the following equation:

8m^2 = 14 − 9m

Answer 1

rewrite the equation first

Answer 2

8m^2+9m-14=0?

Answer 3

yeah, now your factors are gonna look a lil different, they will have coefficients on them this time
(4x )(2x )
or
(8x )(x )

Answer 4

it'll be 7 & 2, but I don't know which is negative.

Answer 5

I choose 4x & 2x

Answer 6

okay plug 7 and 2 and see if it works.

Answer 7

you're not wrong, 7 and 2 are the constants you'll be using but the 4x & 42 won't work, you have to use the 8x and x

Answer 8

-7 & 2

Answer 9

this kind of problem is basically try all possible ways until u find the correct way.. ill save you the trouble the factors are
(8m-7)(m+2)=0

Answer 10

That's what I have so far, now I have to subtract & stuff.

Answer 11

to find m now you have to set each factor equal to 0.
8m-7=0

m+2=0

Answer 12

and solve for

Answer 13

m

Answer 14

7/8 & -2

Answer 15

yes

Answer 16

Thank you, next quesion.
