Question

Solve the equation 2p square + 11p=30

Answer 1

Answer:

$p=- \frac{15}{2}$

$p=2$

Step-by-step explanation:

$2p^2+11p=30$

Subtract 30 on both sides.

$2p^2+11p-30=30-30$

$2p^2+11p-30=0$

Factor left side of the equation.

$(2p + 15)(p-2)=0$

Set factors equal to 0.

$2p+15=0$

$2p=-15$

$p=\frac{-15}{2}$

$p-2=0$

$p=2$
