Question

Solve for the variable: p - 4.2 = 2. Show your work

Answer 1

6.2

Explanation:

P - 4.2 =2

we have to no separate the variables and constants

so , when we move 4.2 to the other side ( other side of 2) it will be something like this

p = 2+4.2

as you can wee when we moved 4.2 to the other side the operation changed from ,minuus to plus sign .

now just do what it says

formula :

=p-4.2=2

=p = 2+4.2

= 2+ 4.2= 6.2

so,

p=6.2

write the formula , I think no need to write explanation
