If p+q has the value that is exactly 1/3 less than p what is the value of q

Mathematics
1 answer:
solmaris [256]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

q = - \frac{1}{3} p

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{1}{3} less than p = \frac{2}{3} p

Thus

p + q = \frac{2}{3} p ( multiply through by 3 to clear the fraction )

3p + 3q = 2p ( subtract 3p from both sides )

3q = - p ( divide both sides by 3 )

q = - \frac{1}{3} p
