Question

solve the equation. what is the value of m? subtract 2m from both sides and rewrite the equation to represent the values that remain. 5 + 2m = 7m - 2m - 2m \square = \square

Explanation:

Step1: Simplify left side

Subtract \(2m\) from \(5 + 2m\): \(5 + 2m - 2m = 5\).

Step2: Simplify right side

Subtract \(2m\) from \(7m\): \(7m - 2m = 5m\).

Answer:

\(5 = 5m\)
