Question

C= 44+(p-1)(32)/2 what is p?

Answer 1

Answer:
`\bold{p=(c-28)/(16)}`

Explanation:

`c=44+((p-1)(32))/(2)\\\\c=44+(p-1)(16)\quad \rightarrow\quad \text{simplified}\ (32/2=16)\\\\c=44+16p-16\quad \rightarrow\quad \text{distributed 16 into p - 1}\\\\c=28+16p\quad \rightarrow\quad \text{added like terms (44 - 16)}\\\\c-28=16p\quad \rightarrow\quad \text{subtracted 28 from both sides}\\\\(c-28)/(16)=p\quad \rightarrow\quad \text{divided 16 from both sides}`
