isolate the variable m

To get the variable by itself work backwards.
The opposite of + 9,2 is - 9.2 so subtract 9.2 from both sides.

# 16.33 -9.2 = m + 9.2-9.2 #

# 7.23 = m #

#m = 7.13#

To solve for #m#, all we need to do is isolate the variable by subtracting #9.2# from both sides of the equation:

#16.33 - 9.2 = m + 9.2 - 9.2#

#7.13 = m#
