Answer:
m = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]m = - (4 + m)[/tex]
Use - to open the bracket
[tex]m = - 4 - m + 2[/tex]
Collect like terms and simplify
[tex]m + m = - 4 + 2 \\ 2m = - 2[/tex]
Divide both sides of the equation by 2
[tex] \frac{2m}{2} = \frac{ - 2}{2} [/tex]
Simplify
[tex]m = - 1[/tex]
