Answer:

4p-7=13

which if you want to solve it the next step would be to add 7 to 13 making 20,(by now the equation is 4p=20) then divde 20 by 4 giving you 5 so p=5

4p-7=13
After the first step which is combining like terms, so add the 3p and the single p together.

Next, the negative 7 turns to a positive when we exterminate it from one half of the equation and add it towards the second part.
4p-7=13
+7. +7
4p=20

Divide both sides by 4 to get the p alone.

4p=20
/4. /4

P=5
That is the answer to the entire equation, again though the first step answer is at the very top, i just felt like solving it for you as well.
