-2(8p+2)-3(2-7p)-2(4+2p)=0
mutiply the first bracket by -2
(-2)(8p)= -16p
(-2)(+2)= -4
mutiply the second bracket by -3
(-3)(2)= -6
(-3)(-7p)= 21p
mutiply the third bracket by -2
(-2)(4)= -8
(-2)(+2p)= -4p
-16p-4-6+21p-8-4p= 0
-16p+21p-4p-4-6-8= 0 ( combine like terms)
5p-4p-4-6-8= 0
p-4-6-8= 0
p-10-8= 0
p-18= 0
move -18 to the other side to get p by itself
sign changes from -18 to +18
p-18+18= 0+18
p= 0+18
Answer: p= 18
4) The first and second terms for both ratios need to be in the same order.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given ratio is:
16:36
In order to find any ratio equivalent to given ratio, the ratio can be divided by a number or multiplied to a number.
The equivalent ratio that is given: 72:32
If we multiply the given ratio by 2: We get 32:72
So,
Looking at the options we can conclude that the right answer is
