Answer:
-3.125
Step-by-step explanation:
So the first thing you want to do when faced with two fractions with different denominators (when subtracting or adding) is to make the denominators the same. So for this equation they would turn out to be p+10/16=15/16 (because 16 is the lowest common denominator, 8 times two) so then you want to subtract 10/16 from 15/16 to isolate the variable (p) which would get:
p=5/16
This is the final answer because it cannot be simplified.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 5 = 2x + 5
Both triangles equal 25
Subtract 2x → You get left with x
x -5 = 5
Add five... which leaves you with↓
x = 10
Then substitute x for 10
(3 · 10) - 5
25
(2 · 10) + 5
25
You know this is true because they equal each other.
I hope this could help!!
