Question

Solve px-c=pq+7 for p.

Answer 1

p = (7 + c) / (x - q)

============

To solve for p in the equation px - c = pq+7, we first need to arrange terms in the equation.

This can be done by grouping all the p terms on one side of the equation and constants on the other side. Therefore, we first subtract pq from both sides of the equation to obtain:

• px - pq = 7 + c

The next step is to factor out p from the left side of the equation to isolate it. This gives us:

• p(x - q) = 7 + c

Hence, we find the value of p by dividing both sides of the equation by (x-q):

• p = (7 + c) / (x - q)
