Question

-7m = 42

solve for m

Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To solve for m, divide both sides of the equation by -7:

-7m/-7 = 42/-7

This simplifies to:

m = -6

Therefore, the value of m is -6.

Answer 2

[AI-generated answer — Explain Bot]

To solve the equation -7m = 42 for m, we need to isolate the variable m on one side of the equation.

Step 1: Start with the given equation: -7m = 42.

Step 2: Divide both sides of the equation by -7 to isolate the variable m. Remember that when you divide both sides of an equation by the same number, the equation remains balanced.

-7m / -7 = 42 / -7.

Simplifying both sides, we have:

m = -6.

Therefore, the value of m that satisfies the equation -7m = 42 is -6.

Answer 3

[AI-generated answer — Step-by-Step Bot]

To solve for m, we need to isolate it on one side of the equation.

Step 1: Add 7m to both sides:
-7m + 7m = 42 + 7m

Simplifying this equation gives us:
0 = 42 + 7m

Step 2: Subtract 42 from both sides:
0 - 42 = 42 + 7m - 42

Simplifying this equation gives us:
-42 = 7m

Step 3: Divide both sides by 7:
-42 / 7 = 7m / 7

Simplifying this equation gives us:
-6 = m

Therefore, the solution is m = -6.

Answer 7

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To solve for k, you need to isolate it on one side of the equation.

Given equation: k/-2 = -10

Step 1: Multiply both sides of the equation by -2 to eliminate the fraction:

k/-2 * -2 = -10 * -2

This simplifies to:

k = 20

Therefore, the solution is k = 20.

Answer 9

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

I apologize for the incorrect explanation. Let's correctly solve the equation.

Given equation: k/-2 = -10

To solve for k, we can multiply both sides of the equation by -2 to eliminate the fraction.

Step 1: Multiply both sides of the equation by -2:

(k/-2) * (-2) = -10 * (-2)

This simplifies to:

k = 20

Therefore, the solution is k = 20.

By multiplying both sides of the equation by -2, the negative sign is canceled out and we are left with k = 20.

Answer 10

5y - 10 = -25

Answer 11

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To solve for y, we need to isolate the variable y on one side of the equation.

Given equation: 5y - 10 = -25

Step 1: Add 10 to both sides of the equation:
5y - 10 + 10 = -25 + 10

This simplifies to:
5y = -15

Step 2: Divide both sides of the equation by 5:
5y / 5 = -15 / 5

This simplifies to:
y = -3

Therefore, the solution is y = -3.

Answer 12

-3x + 4 = -8

Answer 13

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To solve for x, we need to isolate the variable x on one side of the equation.

Given equation: -3x + 4 = -8

Step 1: Subtract 4 from both sides of the equation:
-3x + 4 - 4 = -8 - 4

This simplifies to:
-3x = -12

Step 2: Divide both sides of the equation by -3:
(-3x) / -3 = (-12) / -3

This simplifies to:
x = 4

Therefore, the solution is x = 4.

Answer 15

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

Apologies for the error in my previous response. Let's correctly solve the equation:

Given equation: -3x + 4 = -8

Step 1: Subtract 4 from both sides of the equation:
-3x + 4 - 4 = -8 - 4

This simplifies to:
-3x = -12

Step 2: Divide both sides of the equation by -3:
(-3x) / -3 = (-12) / -3

This simplifies to:
x = 4

Therefore, the solution is x = 4.

Answer 16

-0.1w + 23.2 = -0.8

Answer 17

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To solve for w, we need to isolate the variable w on one side of the equation.

Given equation: -0.1w + 23.2 = -0.8

Step 1: Subtract 23.2 from both sides of the equation:
-0.1w + 23.2 - 23.2 = -0.8 - 23.2

This simplifies to:
-0.1w = -24

Step 2: Divide both sides of the equation by -0.1:
(-0.1w) / (-0.1) = (-24) / (-0.1)

This simplifies to:
w = 240

Therefore, the solution is w = 240.

Answer 18

m/10 - 12 = -24

Answer 19

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To solve for m, we need to isolate the variable m on one side of the equation.

Given equation: m/10 - 12 = -24

Step 1: Add 12 to both sides of the equation:
m/10 - 12 + 12 = -24 + 12

This simplifies to:
m/10 = -12

Step 2: Multiply both sides of the equation by 10 to eliminate the fraction:
(m/10) * 10 = -12 * 10

This simplifies to:
m = -120

Therefore, the solution is m = -120.

Answer 20

Cody has 22 rare coins. Each year Clark plans to add 15 coins to his collection. How many years will it take Cody to collect 577 coins?

Answer 21

\frac{m}{10\ }\ -12\ =\ -24

Answer 22

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To solve for m, we need to isolate the variable m on one side of the equation.

Given equation: m/10 - 12 = -24

Step 1: Add 12 to both sides of the equation:
m/10 - 12 + 12 = -24 + 12

This simplifies to:
m/10 = -12

Step 2: Multiply both sides of the equation by 10 to eliminate the fraction:
(m/10) * 10 = -12 * 10

This simplifies to:
m = -120

Therefore, the solution is m = -120.

Answer 23

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

Let's solve this problem step by step.

Cody currently has 22 rare coins. Clark plans to add 15 coins to his collection each year.

To find out how many years it will take Cody to collect 577 coins, we need to set up an equation based on the given information.

Let's say it takes "x" years for Cody to collect 577 coins.

In the first year, Cody will have his initial 22 coins plus the 15 coins Clark adds, giving a total of 22 + 15 = 37 coins.

In the second year, Cody will have 37 (previous year's total) + 15 (coins added by Clark) = 52 coins.

Continuing this pattern, we can say that in the x-th year, Cody will have 22 + 15x coins.

We want this to equal 577, so we can set up an equation:

22 + 15x = 577.

Now, let's solve this equation for x to find the number of years it will take Cody to collect 577 coins.

Subtracting 22 from both sides of the equation gives:

15x = 577 - 22,
15x = 555.

Dividing both sides of the equation by 15 gives:

x = 555 / 15,
x = 37.

Therefore, it will take Cody 37 years to collect 577 coins.

Answer 24

Tom is given the equation 10x + 15 = 20 to solve. He says the solution is 1/2. Which reason justifies his solution?

Answer 25

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To justify Tom's solution that 1/2 is the solution to the equation 10x + 15 = 20, we can substitute 1/2 for x in the equation and check if it satisfies the equation:

10(1/2) + 15 = 20

This simplifies to:

5 + 15 = 20

20 = 20

Since the left side of the equation is equal to the right side, we can confirm that 1/2 is indeed a solution to the equation.

Therefore, Tom's solution is justified as the equation holds true when x = 1/2.

Answer 26

Dr. Burrows is measuring the weight of a substance for a science experiment. He added a mystery substance (m) to his experiment. Dr. Burrows used the equation 13.93 + m = 18.0 to find out how much he added. How much of the mystery substance (m) did he add to his experiment?

Answer 27

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To find out how much of the mystery substance (m) Dr. Burrows added to his experiment, we can solve the given equation:

13.93 + m = 18.0

To isolate m on one side of the equation, we need to subtract 13.93 from both sides:

(13.93 + m) - 13.93 = 18.0 - 13.93

This simplifies to:

m = 4.07

Therefore, Dr. Burrows added 4.07 units of the mystery substance (m) to his experiment.
