Group the terms with variables on one side of the equal sign and simplify.

19p = 10p + 54

9p = 54
9p = −54
29p = 54
29p = −54

Explanation:

my dear this is very very simple

you can definitely solve it by yourself.

just take "like terms" pit them at one side make (if a negative sign crosses to the other side of the "equal to sign" (=) it changes to positive and vice versa.

19p = 10p + 54

so grouping like terms:

10p will come and meet 19p (but it will carry the positive sign because it has crossed the '=' sign

so we have,

19p -10p = 54

since 19p and -10p are like terms so we can subtract (imagine 19 apples - 10 apples)

so we get:

9p = 54 ( 9 apples = 54)

option (A)

Hope this helps.

Ace that assignment.

Good luck ✅.

you're super free to ask any further questions okay.

Explanation:

19p = 10p + 54

Subtract 10p on both sides,

19p - 10p = 54

9p = 54
