We cannot solve for a numerical value of p, but rather set the equation equal to p.
w = 4/(p+2)
(Multiply both sides by the denominator)
w(p+2) = 4
(divide both sides by w)
p+2 = 4/w
(Subtract 2 from both sides) (also 2/1)
p = (4-2)/w
p = 2/w
Answer:
6.75
Step-by-step explanation:
10.00-3.25= 5.75
the first pieces of information are irrelevant
2.4=6x so isolated the variable, 2.4/6=0.4 so x=0.4
