Answer 5

Answer 6

add it...?

Answer 7

Yes!

Answer 8

that didnt make 2. tho

Answer 9

So that means you will add 1. Which answer do you put as 1. No? because -1 + 1 = 0

Answer 10

where you have say - 1 on left side of equation then you add 1
if you have a positive number on left side you subtract the positive number

eg if you add 3 + x then you subtract 3 - or putting it another way ,add -3.

Answer 11

@welshfella

Answer 27

@welshfella

Answer 28

its been a half an hour

Answer 29

really aggravated

Answer 30

are you kidding me @welshfella

Answer 31

i'll do the first one for you

2m - 1 = 3m
the first step is to get the terms with m on right side
to do this we subtract 2m for both sides
2m -2m - 1 = 3m - 2m

so the first one pairs up with 'subtract 2m'

what you need to do is isolate the variable on one side of each equation

Answer 32

3. m - 1 = 2
here you add 1

m - 1 + 1 = 2 + 1
m = 3

so this pairs up with add 1
