To solve for y, you want to get y by itself.
In order to get y by itself, you subtracted 9
for an equation, what you do to one side, you must do to the other
so y+9=47
y+9-9=47-9
y=?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
you just subtract 47 and 9

(m - 5) − 16 = −12
m =
OpenStudy (anonymous):
how do i do this one ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
The same as above,
It would read as
m-5-16=-12
which equals
m-21=-12
this is because -5-16= -5+(-16)
so you have m-21=-12
now add 21 to both sides

ugh math is so hard for me
OpenStudy (anonymous):
y=47-9= 38
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so you should get
m-21=-12
m-21+21=-12+21
m=9
You can check this answer by plugging 9 in for m into your starting equation.
so
(m-5)-16=-12
(9-5)-16=-12
4-16=-12
-12=-12
