Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

p-1=5p+3p-8

7=7p

p=1

Answer 2

Answer:

p = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

$p-1 = 5p + 3p - 8$

combine like terms on the right side

$p - 1 = 8p - 8$

subtract 8p from both sides

$-7p - 1 = -8$

add 1 to both sides

$-7p = -7$

divide both sides by -7

$p = 1$
