1. **State the problem:** Solve for $m$ in the equation $$9m - (6m - 7) = 2(m - 3)$$. 2. **Apply the distributive property and remove parentheses:** $$9m - 6m + 7 = 2m - 6$$ 3. **Combine like terms on the left side:** $$3m + 7 = 2m - 6$$ 4. **Isolate variable terms on one side by subtracting $2m$ from both sides:** $$3m - \cancel{2m} + 7 = \cancel{2m} - 6$$ $$m + 7 = -6$$ 5. **Isolate $m$ by subtracting 7 from both sides:** $$m + \cancel{7} = -6 - \cancel{7}$$ $$m = -13$$ 6. **Final answer:** $$m = -13$$ The correct choice is A. -13.
