Note the equal sign. What you do to one side, you do to the other.

Isolate the p. Add 0.75p to both sides.

-0.75p (+0.75p) - 2 = 0.25p ( +0.75p)

Simplify

-2 = 1p

p = -2

-2 is your answer

Hope this helps

you move first the number without the variable to the other side with the opposite sign

-0.75p=0.25+2

-0.75p=2.25

then as -0.75 is multiplying you pass it to the other side dividing

p=2.25/-0.75

p=-3

What is the length of segment CD question mark

mars1129 [50]

Answer:

CD = two square root of 10 end square root

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the length of a segment, use the distance formula. Substitute the order pairs for the endpoints of the segment. CD has the end points (-7, -4) and (-1, -2).

$d = \sqrt{(y_2-y_1)^2 + (x_2-x_1)^2} \\\\d = \sqrt{(-4--2)^2 + (-7--1)^2} \\\\d = \sqrt{-2^2 + -6^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{4 + 36}\\\\d=\sqrt {40} = 2\sqrt{10}$
