Question

I am able to solve the question but I can't seem to get the right answer.
**it is rational equations!!!

(2/m+1) = (8m/m+1) - 3

Answer 1

I would not be surprised if you have typos but as written:
2/m + 1 = 9 - 3
2/m = 5
m = 2/5

Answer 2

the answer key says that the m=1

Answer 3

If you meant to type:
2/(m+1) = 8m/(m+1) - 3
then
2 = 8 - 3(m+1)
6 = 3m + 3
m = 1

Answer 4

Then you had the typos I thought you had.
Be careful with parentheses.

Answer 5

so when u solve it u have to multiply out m+1 and it is then only going to multiply with the 3 right?????

Answer 6

ok thanks for the correction. it is harder to type it out for mee on a laptop!!!

Answer 7

Yes
(m+1) [2/(m+1)] = [8m/(m+1)](m+1) - 3 [m+1]

Answer 8

2 = 8 m -3 m - 3
5 = 5 m
m =1
( I had a typo)

Answer 9
