16 + -2m + m2 = 0

Solving for variable 'm'.

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-16' to each side of the equation.
16 + -2m + -16 + m2 = 0 + -16

Reorder the terms:
16 + -16 + -2m + m2 = 0 + -16

Combine like terms: 16 + -16 = 0
0 + -2m + m2 = 0 + -16
-2m + m2 = 0 + -16

Combine like terms: 0 + -16 = -16
-2m + m2 = -16

The m term is -2m.  Take half its coefficient (-1).
Square it (1) and add it to both sides.

Add '1' to each side of the equation.
-2m + 1 + m2 = -16 + 1
