@Qwertty123
OpenStudy (cutestgirlaround):
I'm thinking A or B
OpenStudy (qwertty123):
Okay well... Simplify both sides of the equation.
13m=12−m
OpenStudy (qwertty123):
then Step 2: Add m to both sides.
13m+m=−m+12+m
14m=12
OpenStudy (qwertty123):
Then Divide both sides by 14.

1
3
m=12−m
OpenStudy (qwertty123):
Add m to both sides.
1 over
3
m+m=−m+12+m
4 over
3
m=12
Multiply both sides by 3/4.
OpenStudy (qwertty123):
Then you can get your answer
OpenStudy (cutestgirlaround):
I got 9.6
OpenStudy (qwertty123):
It is 9... So C
