P=11/3

Original:
29-3p+3=5(3p-8)

STEPS:
29-3p+3=15p-40
29-3p=15p-37
29=18p-37
66=18p
(66=18p) / 18/18
P=11/3 or 3 2/3

X=6

ORIGINAL:
4(x+6)-7=x+35

STEPS:
4x+24-7=x+35
4x+24=x+42
4x=x+18
3x=18
/ 3/3

If these are two separate questions then this is how you do it:
First the left one

29 - 3p + 3 = 5(3p - 8)

32 - 3p = 15p - 40

72 = 18p

72/18 = p

p = 4

Now the right one

4(x + 6) - 7 = x + 35

4x + 24 - 7 = x + 35

4x + 17 = x + 35

3x = 18

x = 6

Hope this helped you =)
