Hey there!
2(p + 1) + 8(p - 1) = 5p
2(p) + 2(1) + 8(p) + 8(-1) = 5p
2p + 2 + 8p - 8 = 5p
10p - 6 = 5p
SUBTRACT 5p to BOTH SIDES
10p - 6 - 5p = 5p - 5p
SIMPLIFY IT!
5p - 6 = 0
ADD 6 to BOTH SIDES
5p - 6 + 6 = 0 + 6
CANCEL out: -6 + 6 because it gives you 0
KEEP: 0 + 6 because it helps solve for the p-value
5p = 0 + 6
5p = 6
DIVIDE 5 to BOTH SIDES
5p/5 = 6/5
CANCEL out: 5/5 because it gives you 1
KEEP: 6/5 because gives you the result of the p-value
SIMPLIFY IT!
p = 6/5
Therefore, your answer is: p = 6/5
Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!

Answer:
The answer is 32
Step-by-step explanation:
8x4=32
Answer:
Neither
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to transform one of the equations into its slope-intercept form:
y + 2/5x = 8
Subtract 2/5x from both sides:
y = -2/5x + 8
y = -5/2x - 7
Graphing both lines, they do intersect at point (-7.14, 10.86), but they are not parallel, nor are they perpendicular from each other. By definition, perpendicular lines must appear to be perpendicular (that is, they intersect at a 90° angle).
Looking at the attached graph (where the purple line is y = -2/5x + 8), their lines do not form a 90° angle.
Therefore, the correct answer is neither.
