-4(m+6)=-8
Open the parenthesis and apply the distributive property:
-4m-24=-8
Add 24 to both sides
-4m=16
4m=-16
m=-4
Open the parenthesis and apply the distributive property:
-4m-24=-8
Add 24 to both sides
-4m=16
4m=-16
m=-4
I'm assuming that you want us to find the value of m, so first let's write out the equation
-4 (m + 6) = -8
We can use the distributive property for the first half of the equation.
-4 × m = -4m
-4 × 6 = -24
-4m - 24 = -8
Now we add 24 on bothe side sof the equation to get -4m by itself.
-4m - 24 + 24 = -8 + 24
Now we get -4m = 16
Divide -4 on both sides to get m by itself
-4m/-4 = 16/-4
Simplify and we get m = -4
Hope I helped!
