Hey there!

0.4p-5=0.08p+3

To solve this inequality, we will need to subtract 0.08p from both sides of the inequality.

$0.4p-5-0.08p=0.08p+3-0.08p\\0.32p-5=3$

Now we have to add both sides by 5.

$0.32p-5+5=3+5\\0.32p=8$

In our last step, we will have to divide both sides by 0.32.

$(0.32p)/(0.32) =(8)/(0.32)\\25\\\text{25 is your answer.}$

Hope this helps!
