Solve the following equation for x:

Question

-5=3m-14
x=

Answer 1

To solve the equation \(-5 = 3m - 14\) for \(m\), follow these steps:

1. Add 14 to both sides of the equation: \[ -5 + 14 = 3m \] \[ 9 = 3m \]

2. Divide both sides by 3: \[ m = \frac{9}{3} = 3 \]

So, the solution is \(m = 3\).

If you need to relate it to \(x\), the equation provided does not give a relation with \(x\). Thus, unless there's more context about how \(x\) relates to \(m\), \(m = 3\) is the answer. If \(x = m\), then \(x = 3\).

In summary: \[ x = 3 \] (if \(x\) is defined to be \(m\)).
