    sharoz s here it is

    1.) 11=m+1

    this is finding the value of m

    so removed + 1 beside m by adding -1 to the left of the equal sign and the right

    -1 + 11 = m + 1 - 1

    10 = m + 0

    so → m = 10

    2.)m/4 =6

    here remove the /4 under m by making it 1(one)

    how: → multiply 4 to the left side of equal sign and to the right side too

    4 x m/4 = 6 x 4

    4 cancel out making it 1(one) . one time m = m

    so → m = 24

    3.) 21=7y

    here remove the 7 beside the y by making it 1(one)

    how: → divide by 7 to the left side of the equal sign and to the right too.

    12/7 = 7/7(y)

    12/7 = 1(y)

    y = 12/7

    hope this helps

    1) 11=m+1

    -1 -1 (Addition Property of Equality)

    10=m

    2) m/4=6

    *4 *4 (Division Property of Equality)

    m=24

    3) 21=7y

    /7 /7 (Divided by 7) (MultiplicationProperty of Equality)

    3=y

    I'm in pre algebra..

    1) 11=m+1

    11-1=10 sooo m=10

    2)m/4=6

    4*6=24

    24/4=6 sooo m=24

    21=7y

    21/7=3

    check it....7(3)=21

    sooo y=3

    hoped i helped!!!!

    how to answer number one:

    11=m+1

    first you transpose the +1 to the other side by making the equation to

    11-1=m+1-1

    therefore making the equation: 10=m, or m=10

    how to answer number two:

    m/4=6

    you multiply both sides of the equation by 4 to get: m= 24

    how to answer number three:

    21=7y

    you divide both sides of the eqation by 7 to get:

    y=3

  • You have to isolate the variable. So for the first one you must isolate m to do this you subtract 1from both sides to get m=10. For the second one you multiply 4 form both sides to get m=24. For the last one you must isolate Y by dividing both side by 7 to get y=3
