Question

8(m-5)=2(3m-8)

Answer 1

lets do this one different

Answer 2

\[8(m-5)=2(3m-8)\] divide by \(2\) and get
\[4(m-5)=3m-8\]

Answer 3

8 (m-5) = 2(3m-8)

You distribute the 8 and the 2.
8m - 40 = 6m - 16

Now you combine like terms.
2m = -24

Now you divide by 2.
m = -12

Answer 4

ok thanks

Answer 5

no not \(-12\) i don't think

Answer 6

\[4(m-5)=3m-8\] multiply
\[4m-20=3m-8\] subtract \(3m\)\[m-20=-8\] add \(20\)
\[m=12\]

Answer 7

Satellite73 is right, I messed up when I added a random negative sign. :)
