Answer:

p >5 or p <-8

Explanation:

-6+|2p+3|>7

Add 6 to each side

-6+6+|2p+3|>7+6

|2p+3|>13

We get a positive and negative solution

2p +3 > 13 and 2p +3 < -13

Subtract 3 from each side

2p +3 -3> 13-3 or 2p +3-3 < -13-3

2p > 10 2p < -16

Divide by 2

2p/2 > 10/2 2p/2 <-16/2

p >5 or p <-8
