Expanding the left side gives

which gives two solutions,

and

. But if

, then

, but this number isn't real, so

is an extraneous solution. Meanwhile if

, you get

, so this solution is correct.
"Potential solutions" might refer to both possibilities, but there is only one actual (real) solution.
136,000,000/31,000= how many hours for the spaceship to reach mars
136,000,000/31,000/24= how many days for the spaceship to reach mars
136,000,000/31,000/24 is approx. 182.7 days or 183 days (rounded up b/c of "to the nearest day").
Answer:
p = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
p − 10p + -5p + 14p − -9p − 2 = -20
-9p + 9p + 9p = -20 + 2
9p = -18
p = -2
