8p-p-4p= 7p-4p= 3p
To solve this group together the like terms. 7p + -p = 6p Then the answer is 6p -9.
2p+4q=16 (now divide the equation by two) p+2q=8 (now subtract 2q) p=8-2q 7p+12q=52 (substitue the answer you got for p in the previous equation) 7(8-2q)+12q=52 (multiply the first equation by 7) 56-14q+12q=52 (subtract 14q from 12q) 56-2q=52 (subtract the 56 from 52) -2q=-4 (multiply by -1) 2q=4 (divide by 2) q=2 p=8-2q (substitute the value of q) p=8-2(2) (multiply) p=8-4 (subtract) p=4 2p+4q=16 (check your answers with the new values of p and q) 2(4)+4(2)=16 8+8=16 true 7p+12q=52 7(4)+12(2)=52 28+24=52 true
-3p
7p + 2 = 5p + 8 7p - 5p = 8 - 2 2p = 6 p = 3
8p+5 = 11+7p= 8p-7p = 11-5p = 6
5p + 4y
5p-7q
7p+5q=-3, p=1 7Xp+5q=-3 7+5q=-3 5p=-10 p=-2
-7p2 -2p3 + 5 is an expression, not an equation or inequality. An expression cannot be solved
4p + 9 + (-7p) + 2 = 4p - 7p + 9 + 2 = -3p + 11
6nx + 7p - 14p + 2nx + 6x = 8nx - 7p + 6x
To simplify 2p + 7p, you first combine the like terms by adding the coefficients of the p variable. In this case, 2p + 7p is equal to 9p. Therefore, the simplified form of 2p + 7p is 9p.
7p + 2q = 46 . . . . (A) 5p + 3q = 36 . . . . (B) 3*(A): 21p + 6q = 138 2*(B): 10p + 6q = 72 Subtracting gives 11p = 66 so that p = 6 Substitute for p in (A): 7*6 + 2q = 46 or 42 + 2q = 46 which gives 2q = 4 so that q = 2 Solution: (p, q) = (6,2)
14 + 6p = 6 + 7p 8 = p
