Answer:

The answer is

p > 1/14

Explanation:

-31p+79 > -59p+81

Group like terms

Send the constants to the right side of the expression and those with variables to the left side

That's

- 31p + 59p > 81 - 79

Simplify

We have

28p > 2

Divide both sides by 28

We have the final answer as

p > 1/14

Hope this helps you
