Question

solve for m.
-2.1(m + 6) = 6.3
m =

Explanation:

Step1: Distribute -2.1

$-2.1m-2.1\times6 = 6.3$
$-2.1m - 12.6=6.3$

Step2: Add 12.6 to both sides

$-2.1m-12.6 + 12.6=6.3 + 12.6$
$-2.1m=18.9$

Step3: Divide both sides by -2.1

$\frac{-2.1m}{-2.1}=\frac{18.9}{-2.1}$
$m=-9$

Answer:

$-9$
