Hello! I posted a question earlier asking about a Pre-Calculus problem, but I'm afraid there was a small typo. I forgot to add what the equation was equal to. Thanks to CPHill for your answer to my previous question, however. This is the correct one.

 

m=2(nx+bn+bx)

 

If anyone can help me, it would be GREATLY appreciated! Thank you!

m=2(nx+bn+bx)

 

I think you wanted to solve for x

 

Divide both sides by 2

 

(m /2)  =  nx + bn + bx     subtract  bn from both sides

 

(m / 2) - bn  =   nx + bx     simplify the left side as a single fraction

 

[ m - 2bn ] / 2     =  nx + bx      factor the right

 

[ m - 2bn ] / 2   =   x [ n + b]        divide both sides by  [ n + b ]

 

[ m - 2bn]  / [ 2 ( n + b) ]  =  x
