Question

Solve for 'p' in the equation: 2p - 6 = 10.

Answer 1

p = 8

Explanation:

To solve for p in the equation 2p-6=10. we must get p by itself in the equation.

First, we add the 6 to both sides of the equation:

2p-6 +6 = 10 + 6 SO 2p = 16

Now, we divide by 2 on both sides:

2p/2 = 16/2 SO p = 8
