Answer:

n = 3

Explanation:

Hello!

p = 2n - 3

the question asks for when p is equal to 3 so we put 3 in for p

3 = 2n - 3

Now we can solve this

3 = 2n - 3

Add 3 to both sides

6 = 2n

Divide both sides by 2

3 = n

The answer is n = 3

Hope this Helps!

Plug in 3 for N

p= 2(3) - 3
p = 6 - 3
p = 3
