Answer:
p = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
4p = 6p + -12
Reorder the terms:
4p = -12 + 6p
Solving
4p = -12 + 6p
Solving for variable 'p'.
Move all terms containing p to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-6p' to each side of the equation.
4p + -6p = -12 + 6p + -6p
Combine like terms: 4p + -6p = -2p
-2p = -12 + 6p + -6p
Combine like terms: 6p + -6p = 0
-2p = -12 + 0
-2p = -12
Divide each side by '-2'.
p = 6
Simplifying
p = 6
