Hello!

  • First I would flip the inequality too: 2p + 4 > 12
  • Then you want to subtract four (since we have to use the inverse operation) from both sides:

2p + 4 > 12

-4 -4

-------------------

2p > 8

  • Now, we divide both sides by 2:

2p > 8

-----------

2 2

  • The final result is p > 4
