Question

Solve the equation 2p/3-12=-2

Answer 1

15

Explanation:

`2p/3 -12 = -2\\2p/3-12+12= -2+12\\3(2p/3=10)3\\2p=30\\p=15`

Answer 2

Hey there!


`(2p)/(3) - 12 = -2`

Firstly, we are going add
`12` on each of the sides that we're working with. like ↓


`p - 12 + 12 \\ \\ = -2 + 12`

This gives us
`(2)/(3)p = 10` (if you are wondering how we got the out come of
`10` it is because I added
`-2 + 12 = 10`

Now multiply
`(3)/(2)` on each of your sides


`(3)/(2) ( (2)/(3)p) \\ \\ = (3)/(2) (10)`

Cancel the first set and you will find the value of
`p`


`p = 15`

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day
