Answer:
[tex]\boxed{m = -38}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]-(6m+8) =4(17-m)[/tex]
→ Expand brackets
[tex]-6m-8=68-4m[/tex]
→ Add 8 to both sides to collect the whole numbers
[tex]-6m = 76-4m[/tex]
→ Add -4m to both sides to collect the m terms
[tex]-2m=76[/tex]
→ Divide both sides by -10 to isolate m
[tex]m=-38[/tex]
