15.
4(x-2) = 2(x-4)+2x
i used the distributive property on the parantheses to then get...
4x-8 = 2x-8+2x
I combined the like terms to then get...
4x-8 = 4x-8
+8 +8
4x = 4x
which simplifies to....
x=x
so the answer to question 15 is x=x

17.
-4(p+1) = -2(8-2p)
I used the distributive property on the parantheses....
-4p-4 = -16+4p
+4 +4
-4p = -12+4p
-4p -4p
-8p = -12
÷-8 ÷-8
p = 1.5

so the answer to question 17 is p = 1.5

hope this helps!!!!
