Question

Solve for P.
–4(–3p+6)–5p=10p
pls help!!

Answer 1

p=8/9

(Chronological Steps)

-4(-3p+6)-5p=10p

-12p-24-5p=10p

-17p+24-10p

-17p+24-24=10p-24

-17p=10p-24

-17p-10p=10p-24-10p

-27p=-24 (since negative and negative equal positive, p is positive)

p=24/27

p=8/9 (final answer)

I know there was another answer but just showing that it is correct!

Hope it helps :)
