Question

Someone help- I don't know how to solve this- maybe my teacher typed it in wrong? 2.4(m - 3) = 3.8 = -8.2

Answer 1

Answer:

m = 4.58  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation :

2.4 ( m - 3) = 3.8

So now we open the brackets and multiply the terms.

⇒ 2.4 m - 7.2 = 3.8

⇒ 2.4 m = 3.8 + 7.2

⇒ 2.4 m = 11

⇒ m = $\frac{11}{2.4}$

⇒ m = 4.58

Therefore, the correct value of the variable m by solving the equation is 4.58
