Multiply the terms
More Steps

Evaluate
m×1×m2
Rewrite the expression
m×m2
Use the product rule an×am=an+m to simplify the expression
m1+2
Add the numbers
m3
m3=−b2a2
Swap the sides of the equation
−b2a2=m3
Rewrite the expression
b2−a2=m3
Cross multiply
−a2=b2m3
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
a2=−b2m3
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
a=±−b2m3
Separate the equation into 2 possible cases
a=−b2m3a=−−b2m3
Simplify
a=bm−ma=−−b2m3
Solution
a=bm−ma=−bm−m
