2x^{2}+xm-16x+32-2m=0
Use the distributive property to multiply x by m-16.
xm-16x+32-2m=-2x^{2}
Subtract 2x^{2} from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
xm+32-2m=-2x^{2}+16x
Add 16x to both sides.
xm-2m=-2x^{2}+16x-32
Subtract 32 from both sides.
\left(x-2\right)m=-2x^{2}+16x-32
Combine all terms containing m.
\frac{\left(x-2\right)m}{x-2}=-\frac{2\left(x-4\right)^{2}}{x-2}
Divide both sides by x-2.
m=-\frac{2\left(x-4\right)^{2}}{x-2}
Dividing by x-2 undoes the multiplication by x-2.
