Hey there!
5 = 4p - 13
4p - 13 = 5
ADD 13 to BOTH SIDES
4p - 13 + 13 = 5 + 13
CANCEL out: -13 + 13 because it give you 0
KEEP: 5 + 13 because it help solve for the p-value
NEW EQUATION: 4p = 5 + 13
SIMPLIFY IT!
4p = 18
DIVIDE 4 to BOTH SIDES
4p/4 = 18/4
CANCEL out: 4/4 because it give you 1
KEEP: 18/4 because it help solve for the p-value
NEW EQUATION: p = 18/4
SIMPLIFY IT or REDUCE IT!
p = 9/2
Therefore, your answer is: p = 9/2
Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
