Question

10(p-7)=180 solve for p

Answer 1

Answer

The answer is p=25

Answer 2

Answer:

p = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable, p. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

PEMDAS is the order of operation, and stands for:

Parenthesis

Exponents

Multiplication

Division

Addition

Subtraction

First, divide 10 from both sides of the equation:

(10(p - 7))/10 = (180)/10

p - 7 = 180/10

p - 7 = 18

Next, add 7 to both sides of the equation:

p - 7 (+7) = 18 (+7)

p = 18 + 7

p = 25

25 is your answer for p.
