Answer: 2x

Step-by-step explanation: 18+2(x-7)=4+M. First distribute 2 to (x-7), then you will be left with 18+2x-14=4+M. You can further simplify the left side of the equation by subtracting 14 from 18, now you are left with 2x+4=4+M. Subtract 4 from both sides to solve for M, 2x=M.

Distributive property = 18 + 2x -14 = 4 +mx

Minus (18-14) = 4 + 2x = 4+ mx

Minus 4 over= 2x = mx

X=2

Hope this helps you!!
