Answer:

p = 3.6666(repeating)

Step-by-step explanation:

3/5(p-3)=-4

We simplify the equation to the form, which is simple to understand  

3/5(p-3)=-4

Simplifying:

+ 0.6*(p-3)=-4

Reorder the terms in parentheses

+( + 0.6p-1.8)=-4

Remove unnecessary parentheses

+ 0.6p-1.8=-4

We move all terms containing p to the left and all other terms to the right.  

+ 0.6p=-4+1.8

We simplify left and right side of the equation.  

+ 0.6p=-2.2

We divide both sides of the equation by 0.6 to get p.  

p=-3.66666666667

2y + 4.4x = -5<br> The step by step answer
Helga [31]
2y+4.4x=-5 (solved for x)
step 1:add -2y to both sides
4.4x+2y+(-2y)= -5 +(-2y)
4.4x=-2y-5
step 2: divide both sides by 4.4
4.4x/4.4= -2y-5/4.4
x=-0.454545y-1.136364
