Solve for m 7m+11-5m-2=2m-9

$7 m + 11 - 5 m - 2 = 2 m - 9$

Step 1

Simplify $7 m + 11 - 5 m - 2$ .

Subtract $5 m$ from $7 m$ .

$2 m + 11 - 2 = 2 m - 9$

Subtract $2$ from $11$ .

$2 m + 9 = 2 m - 9$

Step 2

Move all terms containing $m$ to the left side of the equation.

Subtract $2 m$ from both sides of the equation.

$2 m + 9 - 2 m = - 9$

Combine the opposite terms in $2 m + 9 - 2 m$ .

Subtract $2 m$ from $2 m$ .

$0 + 9 = - 9$

Add $0$ and $9$ .

$9 = - 9$

Step 3

Since $9 \neq - 9$ , there are no solutions.
