2x^{2}-mx^{2}-\left(3m+1\right)x+4=0
Use the distributive property to multiply 2-m by x^{2}.
2x^{2}-mx^{2}-\left(3mx+x\right)+4=0
Use the distributive property to multiply 3m+1 by x.
2x^{2}-mx^{2}-3mx-x+4=0
To find the opposite of 3mx+x, find the opposite of each term.
-mx^{2}-3mx-x+4=-2x^{2}
Subtract 2x^{2} from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
-mx^{2}-3mx+4=-2x^{2}+x
Add x to both sides.
-mx^{2}-3mx=-2x^{2}+x-4
Subtract 4 from both sides.
\left(-x^{2}-3x\right)m=-2x^{2}+x-4
Combine all terms containing m.
\frac{\left(-x^{2}-3x\right)m}{-x^{2}-3x}=\frac{-2x^{2}+x-4}{-x^{2}-3x}
Divide both sides by -x^{2}-3x.
m=\frac{-2x^{2}+x-4}{-x^{2}-3x}
Dividing by -x^{2}-3x undoes the multiplication by -x^{2}-3x.
m=\frac{-2x^{2}+x-4}{-x\left(x+3\right)}
Divide -2x^{2}+x-4 by -x^{2}-3x.
