Answer:

p+12

Explanation:

I'm assuming you want me to simplify this equation. Okay, first, we eliminate the redundant parenthesis. Now, we have 6p+4+-5p+8, we can simplify this to 6p+4-5p+8 because adding a negative has the same effect as subtraction. Now, we combine like terms (6p and -5p, and 4 and 8). From this, we have 1p+12 (4+8=12, and 6p-5p=1p, or just p). We can simplify this even more to get p+12. I hope this helps!
