Answer:

p = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

2p - 3 = p+2

To Find:

  • Value of <em>p</em>

Soln:

2p - 3 = p + 2

<em>Subtract p from both sides:</em>

=>2p-3−p = p+2-p

=>p-3 = 2

<em>Add 3 to both sides</em><em>:</em>

=>p−3+3 = 2+3

=>p = 5

Hence,the value of <em>p</em> would be 5.

<em><u>We can plug the value we got to the original equation to verify:</u></em>

=> 2p - 3 = p + 2

  • p = 5

=> 2(5) -3 = 5 + 2

  • [Make sure to simplify using PEMDAS]

=> 10 - 3 = 7

=> 7 = 7 [Proved]

Hence,this equation is true.

\rule{225pt}{2pt}

Acronym PEMDAS rule means:

  • P:Parentheses
  • E:Exponents
  • M:Multiplication
  • D:Division
  • A:Addition
  • S:Subtraction
