Answer 1

To solve the equation 5-|p+6|=8, we need to isolate the absolute value term on one side of the equation and simplify.

5-|p+6|=8
Subtract 5 from both sides:
-|p+6|=3
Divide both sides by -1 (to isolate the absolute value term):
|p+6|=-3

Since absolute values cannot be negative, there is no solution to this equation.
