Question

Im lost on how to do this

Answer 1

open the brackets

15-3p-10-2p= 3p+3

collect the like terms

[15-10-3]=3p+3p+2p

this results to,,

2=8p,, devide both sides by 8

p=0.25

Answer 2

p = 1/4

Explanation:

This is a one-variable equation.

step 1) 15 - 3p - 10 - 2p = 3p +3

step 2) 5 - 5p = 3p + 3

step 3) 8p = 2

step 4) p = 2/8 = 1/4
