Question

What’s the answer for this…


Solve for p

2p + 3 > 2 (p – 3)

Answer 1

2p+3>2(p−3)

Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by p−3.

2p+3>2p−6

Subtract 2p from both sides.

2p+3−2p>−6

Combine 2p and −2p to get 0.

-3>6

This is true for any p.

p∈R

Answer 2

C. No solution

Explanation:

Sove for p;

2p + 3 > 2 (p – 3)

First: distribute 2 (p – 3):

2 (p – 3)

2(p) + 2(-3)

2p - 6

Now add it back to your original problem:

2p + 3 > 2p - 6

Subtract 3 from both sides of the equation:

2p + 3 > 2p - 6

- 3 - 3

2p > 2p -9

Subtract 2p from both sides of the equation:

2p > 2p -9

-2p -2p

0 > -9

Therefore, this inequality has no solution, because we could solve for p.
