Question

How many solutions does -2 + 5p + 10 = 10 + 3p have?

Answer 1

Only 1 solution

Explanation:

-2 + 5p + 10 = 10 + 3p

Subtract 10 from both sides:

-2 + 5p + 10 -10 = 10 + 3p- 10

Simplify:

-2+5p=3p

Add 2 to both sides:

-2+5p+2=3p+2

Subtract 3p from both sides:

5p-3p=3p+2-3p

simplify:

2p=2

Divide both sides by 2:

2p/2=2/2

Simplify:

p=1
