Answer:
p =2 p=-18
Step-by-step explanation:
|p+8|
-------------- = 5
2
Multiply each side by 2
|p+8|
-------------*2 = 5*2
2
|p+8| =10
There is a positive and a negative solution
p+8=10 p+8=-10
Subtract 8 from each side
p+8-8=10-8 p+8-8=-10-8
p =2 p=-18
Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable.
