Which of the following equations are equivalent to -2m - 5m - 8 = 3 + (-7) + m?

-15m = -4m
-7m - 8 = m - 4
-3m - 8 = 4 - m
m - 4 = -7m - 8
-8 - 7m = -4 + m
-8 - 3m = 4 - m



Answer :

mumsy
first  you need to solve the equation
-2m-5m-8=3+(-7)+m
-7m-8=-4+m   or -7m-8=m-4
the second choice

also this choice
8 - 7m = -4 + m  the fifth one

To solve this problem, we must simplify the the equation:

Here is the base equation -2m - 5m - 8 = 3 + (-7) + m (Add all like terms):


#1 -2m - 5m - 8 = 3 + (-7) + m (Property of Addition)

#2 -7m - 8 = -4 + m (Most Simplified Equation)


The answer your would be the 2nd one. -7m - 8 = m - 4
