Answer:
I think that would be 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Do everything in the lines before anything else. -2 becomes a 2 and then you add that with the 12 and divide 12 on both sides to get one.
Work: -3p-(-8+4p)
Distribute
-3p+8-4p
Combine
-7p+8
Answer: -7p+8
Hope that helps
Slope intercept form is y = mx + b
So if you start with 9x - 7y = -7, the first thing you need to do is move the 9x to the other side of the equation by subtracting it from both sides.
9x - 7y = -7
-9x -9x
Now you have -7y = -9x -7
For the equation to be in slope intercept form now you should divide every term by the number in front of your y. In this case divide every term by -7
-<u>7y</u> = <u>-9x</u> <u>-7</u>
-7 -7 -7
That leaves you with: y = 9x/7 + 1
So,
First, I'd like to note that it is required to show work. You shouldn't need to ask for steps.
7(2p + 3) - 8 = 6p + 29
Distribute
14p + 21 - 8 = 6p + 29

14p + 13 = 6p + 29
Subtract 6p from both sides
8p + 13 = 29
Subtract 13 from both sides
8p = 16
Divide both sides by 8
p = 2
Check
7(2(2) + 3) - 8 = 6(2) + 29
Simplify inside the parentheses first.
7(4 + 3) - 8 = 6(2) + 29
7(7) - 8 = 6(2) + 29
Now, distribute.
49 - 8 = 12 + 29

41 = 41 This checks.
S = { 2 }
