Question

-5p - 8 - 2p = 41 help

Answer 1

16.33333333333..........

Answer 2

First you have to add common like terms in this case the -5p and the -2p to get -7p-8=41, now we have to leave p by itself so lets add 8 to both sides and get -7p=49, now divide both sides by -7 to leave p completly by itself and get p=-7

Hope this helps
