p = -3
4p - 12 = 3p - 8 - 9p 4p - 3p + 9p = -8 + 12 10p = 4 p = 0.4 (or 2/5)
-9p + 6p = -3p
-9p - 15 = 93
9p + 27 = 9(p + 3)
p = -3
4p - 12 = 3p - 8 - 9p 4p - 3p + 9p = -8 + 12 10p = 4 p = 0.4 (or 2/5)
-9p + 6p = -3p
-10 -7 + 9p = 9p - 17
-9p - 15 = 93
9p + 27 = 9(p + 3)
Nonsense.
Evaluate 9p + 33 for p = 5
-14 + 3p = -9p - 21 add 14 and 9p to both sides, then 12p = -7 p = -7/12
-8
It is a linear equation in the one variable, p.
9p - 5
