Question

Solve the equation and check your result 6(3m + 2) – 2(6m – 1) = 3(m – 8) – 6(7m – 6) +9m

hintHint:

solve the given equation for m .

The correct answer is: m = -1/18


    Ans :- m = -1/18
    Explanation :-
    table attributes columnalign right left right left right left right left right left right left columnspacing 0em 2em 0em 2em 0em 2em 0em 2em 0em 2em 0em end attributes row cell 6 left parenthesis 3 m plus 2 right parenthesis minus 2 left parenthesis 6 m minus 1 right parenthesis equals 3 left parenthesis m minus 8 right parenthesis minus 6 left parenthesis 7 m minus 6 right parenthesis plus 9 m end cell row cell not stretchy rightwards double arrow 18 m plus 12 minus 12 m plus 2 equals 3 m minus 24 minus 42 m plus 36 plus 9 m end cell end table
    not stretchy rightwards double arrow 6 m plus 14 equals negative 30 m plus 12
    not stretchy rightwards double arrow 36 m equals 12 minus 14 not stretchy rightwards double arrow 36 m equals negative 2
     therefore space m space equals space minus 1 divided by 18
    Checking the answer m = -1/18 by substituting in the given equation .
    not stretchy rightwards double arrow 18 m plus 12 minus 12 m plus 2 equals 3 m minus 24 minus 42 m plus 36 plus 9 m
    not stretchy rightwards double arrow 18 left parenthesis negative 1 divided by 18 right parenthesis plus 12 minus 12 left parenthesis negative 1 divided by 18 right parenthesis plus 2 equals 3 left parenthesis negative 1 divided by 18 right parenthesis minus 24 minus 42 left parenthesis negative 1 divided by 18 right parenthesis plus 36 plus 9 left parenthesis negative 1 divided by 18 right parenthesis
    not stretchy rightwards double arrow 6 left parenthesis negative 1 divided by 18 right parenthesis plus 14 equals negative 30 left parenthesis negative 1 divided by 18 right parenthesis plus 12
    not stretchy rightwards double arrow negative 1 divided by 3 plus 14 equals plus 5 divided by 3 plus 12
    not stretchy rightwards double arrow 41 divided by 3 equals 41 divided by 3 which is always true so the answer m = -1/18 is correct.

    2000 minus 61 k equals 48
    In 1962, the population of a bird species was 2,000. The population k years after 1962 were 48, and k satisfies the equation above. Which of the following is the best interpretation of the number 61 in this
    context?

    Note:
    This question could also be solved by eliminating the options. Option A is wrong as the population k years after 1962 is 48, not 61. Option B is wrong because we find the value of k to be 32. Option C is wrong because the difference between the population in 1962 and the population years after 1962 is given by 2000-48=1952.

    8 x minus 2 x left parenthesis c plus 1 right parenthesis equals x
    In the equation above, c is a constant. If the equation has infinitely many solutions, what is the value of c ?

    Note:
    As the equation 8 x minus 2 x left parenthesis c plus 1 right parenthesis equals x  is true for all values of x, we could have put x equal to any other number instead of 1, and we would get the same result. If we put x=1 in the first step as well, we would get the same value for x
