The answer is #m=34#.

Explanation:

To solve for a variable, you have to get the variable by itself, to one side. To do this in this problem, you have to understand what is happening to the variable, #m#. In this problem, 19 is being subtracted from #m#.

So, you have to get the variable by itself. To do this, you have to do the inverse operation of what is currently happening to 19. 4.2 is being added to b, so you have to add it to the left side to get rid of it. But remember! Whatever you do to one side, you have to do it to the other.

Once we add 19 to the left and the right sides, you will end up with your answer.

After you have solved this problem, you will end up with the answer
#b=1.9.#
