p = 10
Hope this helps
Answer:
[tex]3p+\:25\left(8\right)\:=\:-21p\:-40 : p = -10[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]3p+25\left(8\right)=-21p-40[/tex]
Remove parentheses: [tex]\left(a\right)=a[/tex]
[tex]3p+25\cdot \:8=-21p-40[/tex]
Multiply the numbers: [tex]25\cdot \:8=200[/tex]
[tex]3p+200=-21p-40[/tex]
Subtract 200 from both sides:
[tex]3p+200-200=-21p-40-200[/tex]
Simplify:
[tex]3p=-21p-240[/tex]
Add 21p to both sides:
[tex]3p+21p=-21p-240+21p[/tex]
Simplify:
[tex]24p=-240[/tex]
Divide both sides by 24:
[tex]\frac{24p}{24}=\frac{-240}{24}[/tex]
Simplify:
p = -10
