51-14p= 84

Simplify both sides of the equation

51-14p=84

51+ -14p =84

-14p +51 = 84

Subtract 51 from both sides

-14p+51-51=84-51

-14p = 33

Divide both sides by -14

-14p/-14 = 33/-14

P = -33/14


I hope that's help !

51 - 14p = 84

You would subtract 51 from both sides.

51 - 14p = 84
-51 -51

-14p = 33

Then divide both sides by -14

-14p = 33
----- -----
-14 -14

p = -2.36 if you round
