Question

Let p = 5. Enter >, <, or = to compare the expressions. 4p4 2p−3

Answer 1

4p+4 is greater than 2p−3 when p=5. So, the answer is >.

Let's substitute p=5 into the expressions and compare them:

4p+4

4×5+4=20+4=24

2p−3

2×5−3=10−3=7

Now, comparing the results:

24>7

Therefore, 4p+4 is greater than 2p−3 when p=5. So, the answer is >.
