-m+4=9
Square both sides of the equation.
-m+4-4=9-4
Subtract 4 from both sides of the equation.
-m=9-4
Subtracting 4 from itself leaves 0.
-m=5
Subtract 4 from 9.
\frac{-m}{-1}=\frac{5}{-1}
Divide both sides by -1.
m=\frac{5}{-1}
Dividing by -1 undoes the multiplication by -1.
m=-5
Divide 5 by -1.
