Question

Solve this linear equation for p

Answer 1

11.2

Explanation:

Given the linear equation :

2.6(5.5p-12.4)=127.92 ; solve for p

Open the bracket :

14.3p - 32.24 = 127.92

Add 32.24 to both sides

14.3p - 32.24 + 32.24 = 127.92 + 32.24

14.3p = 160.16

Divide both sides by 14.3

14.3p/14.3 = 160.16/ 14.3

p = 11.2

The value of p = 11.2
