Two

Many

Answer 1

these Questions are confusing to me plz hlp

Answer 2

5m – 5m – 12 = 14 – 2
(5 - 5)m - 12 = -12
0m = -12 + 12
0m = 0
Zero times any number is zero.
Simplifying
5m + -5m + -12 = 14 + -2

Reorder the terms:
-12 + 5m + -5m = 14 + -2

Combine like terms: 5m + -5m = 0
-12 + 0 = 14 + -2
-12 = 14 + -2

Combine like terms: 14 + -2 = 12
-12 = 12

Solving
-12 = 12

Couldn't find a variable to solve for.

This equation is invalid, the left and right sides are not equal, therefore there is no solution.

Answer 3

Either those two

Answer 4

5m − 5m − 12 = 14 − 2
0 - 12 = 14 - 2
-12 = 12
