Add 2p² to each side of the equation. Then you have
2p² + 16p + 24 = 0 .
Before you roll up your sleeves and start working on it, you can make it
even more convenient if you divide each side by 2 . Then you have:
p² + 8p + 12 = 0 .
Now you have a nice, comfortable, familiar-looking quadratic equation.
You can either factor the left side into (p + 6) (p + 2), or, if you can't find
the factors, you can apply the quadratic formula to it.
That's how to solve it, and find its two solutions.

Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x > -2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
1) 5.1 (3 + 2.2x) > -14.25 - 6 (1.7x + 4)
2) 15.3 + 11.22x > -14.25 - 10.2x - 24
3) 15.3 + 11.22x > -38.25 - 10.2x
4) 11.22x + 10.2x > -38.25 - 15.3
5) 21.42x > -53.55
6) x > -2.5
Alternate forms
x > -5/2x or x > -2 1/2
