8(m+4)=-16

Nnesha (nnesha):

distribute m+4 by 8 first

OpenStudy (anonymous):

8m + 32 = -16 right? so then solve for m. if you don't like m just substitute it with an x if your more familiar with that they are the same thing.

Nnesha (nnesha):

you should got 8m + 32 = -16

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

you don't have to distribute

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

divide both sides by 8 m + 4 = -8

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

solve for m by subtracting 4 from both sides

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

m = -8 - 4

Nnesha (nnesha):

8m + 32 = -16 8m = -16 - 32 subtract 32 both side 8m = -48 m= -48 / 8 divide both side by 8 m = -6 ??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

8m+32=-16 8m=-16-32 8m=-48 m=-48 divide 8 m=-6 @JarrettePope
