Expanding and Grouping!
6(p-7) - 5p + 15 + 3p + 2(4) = ??
6p - 42 - 5p + 15 + 3p + 8 = ??
6p - 5p + 3p = 42 - 8 - 15 (Remember, what you do to one side, you do to the other. To get rid of -42, you have to add 42 on each side. To get rid of +8, you have to subtract 8 on each side, and so on.)
4p = 19
p = 4.75
Tadah! I love math, So much better than english.
-3s*4p+-4s*3p -12sp+-12sp -24sp
3p
3p
Unfortunately, limitations of the browser used by Answers.com means that we cannot see most symbols. It is therefore impossible to give a proper answer to your question. Please resubmit your question spelling out the symbols as "plus", "minus", "equals", "squared". There is no symbol between 15 and 3p.
3p+52
3p+7 = 16+2p 3p-2p = 16-7 p = 9
15 + 3 = 7p - 4p ie 18 = 3p so p = 6
3p+5+p = -23 3p+p = -23-5 4p = -28 p = -7
8 + 5p + 7q + 9 + 3p Reordering: 8 + 9 + 5p + 3p + 7q Combine like terms: 17 + 8p + 7q
-5 + 3p - p = -5 + 2p
Add them together: 02p+3p = 5p
p2 + 3p = p (p + 3)
