    Answer: m = 11

    Step-by-step explanation:

    In order to solve this equation, you have to bring the 5 to the 17. To cancel out the - 5 add a five. Then do that to 17. Now you have 2m = 22. To isolate m, divide. 2m divided by 2 is m, and 22 divided by 2 is 11. M = 11.

    Answer: m=11

    Step-by-step explanation:

    First since there are no m's on the other side you cancel out the 5 by adding 5 to - 5 and then add 5 to 17 which will give you 22

    2m-5=17

    +5 + 5

    2m=22

    Now you divide 2m by to get the variable m by itself then divide the other side by 2

    2m=22

    :2. : 2

    Which leaves you with

    M=11
