Answer:
m = 10/3
(as a decimal: m = 3.333...)
Step-by-step explanation:
5m - 8 = 2m + 2
5m - 8 = 2m + 2
- 2m - 2m (make all "m" on one side to isolate variable)
3m - 8 = 2
+ 8 + 8 (get m entirely on 1 side)
3m = 10
÷3 ÷3 (divide by 3 to get 1m)
m = 10/3
(as a decimal: m = 3.333...)
hope this helps!! have a lovely day :)
