-\left(4m^{2}-12m+9\right)+2m\left(2m-3\right)+m-3=3
Use binomial theorem \left(a-b\right)^{2}=a^{2}-2ab+b^{2} to expand \left(2m-3\right)^{2}.
-4m^{2}+12m-9+2m\left(2m-3\right)+m-3=3
To find the opposite of 4m^{2}-12m+9, find the opposite of each term.
-4m^{2}+12m-9+4m^{2}-6m+m-3=3
Use the distributive property to multiply 2m by 2m-3.
12m-9-6m+m-3=3
Combine -4m^{2} and 4m^{2} to get 0.
6m-9+m-3=3
Combine 12m and -6m to get 6m.
7m-9-3=3
Combine 6m and m to get 7m.
7m-12=3
Subtract 3 from -9 to get -12.
7m=3+12
Add 12 to both sides.
7m=15
Add 3 and 12 to get 15.
m=\frac{15}{7}
Divide both sides by 7.
