It depends what 6(p - 4) - 30p is supposed to equal.

Substituting p = -1, gives:

6((-1) - 4) - 30(-1)

= 6×-5 - 30×-1

= -30 + 30

= 0

Only if 6(p - 4) - 30p = 0 is p = -1 a solution.

Otherwise it is not a solution.

What is the answer to 6p 108?

If your question is about 6p = 108, then here's how you do it. # Divide both sides by 6, so the variable p is by itself. 6p/6 = p, and 108/6 = 18 So, in the above equation, p = 18.


What is the step by step solution to -6p-5 equals -9 plus 8p?

-6p -5 = -9 +8p Add 6p to both sides: -5 = -9 + 14p Add 9 to both sides: +4 = 14p Divide both sides by 14: p =4/14 = 2/7 or 0.2857.. Are you sure that the second term in the equation was -5 and not +5 (as seems more likely)?


If 4p plus 3 equals -6p plus -5 what is p's value?

4p+3 = -6p-5 4p+6p = -5-3 10p = -8 p = -0.8 Substituting the value of p into the original equation gives you: -1/5 = -1/5

(p) is the variable...it can stand for anything, but what you are trying to do is solve for it. 6p+5=29 is simply 4. 1) Get the variable on one side - Subtract 5 from each side: 6p=24 2) If applicable, make it so there is only "one" variable - Divide each side by 6: p=4
