Question

What is -24m-16=-56 and show work

Answer 1

m = 5/3

Explanation:

I'd prefer you write, "solve -24m-16=-56 for m." It's best to be specific.

Add 16 to both sides. This results in -24m = -40.

Dividing both sides by -24, we get m = -40/(-24), or m = -5/(-3), or m = 5/3.

Answer 2

3/5

Explanation:

-24m-16 = -56

-24m = -40

m= 24/40

m= 3/5
