Question

-2(p - 1) = 15 helllp plss slol

Answer 1

P = -6.5

Explanation:

Multiply -2 x p and -2 x -1

The equation now is -2p + 2 = 15

Subtract the 2 to both sides to cancel it out

The equation now is -2p = 13

Divided both sides by -2 to isolate the p variable

p = -6.5

You can check your answer by subtracting -6.5 by -1 (which equals -7.5)

And then multiply -7.5 by -2 which equals 15
