Question

2p - 6 = 8 + 5(p +9)
How do you solve it

Answer 1

• Answer:

p = - 59/3

`p=-19(2)/(3)`

• Explanation:

2p - 6 = 8 + 5(p + 9)

2p - 6 = 8 + 5p + 45

- 6 - 8 - 45 = 5p - 2p

3p = - 59

p = - 59/3

`p=`
`-19(2)/(3)`

Answer 2

Explanation:

2p-6=8+5p+45

2p-6=53+5p

2p-5p=53+6

-3p=59

p=59/-3

p= -19.67
