Question

What is 8.2p-33.4=1.7-3.5p

Answer 1

p=3
First you add 33.4 to both sides. Then add 3.5p to both sides. Then divide 35.1 by 11.7 and you get 3.

Answer 2

`8.2p-33.4=1.7-3.5p`


`8.2p=1.7-3.5p+33.4`
`Add \ 33.4 \ to \ both \ sides`


`8.2p=-3.5p+35.1`


`8.2p+3.5p=35.1`
`Add \ 3.5p \ to \ both \ sides`


`11.7p=35.1`


`(11.7p)/(11.7) = (35.1)/(11.7p)`
`Divide \ both \ sides \ by \ 11.7`


`p=3`
