Simplify by removing parentheses Simplify -(15p + 50): Distribute the - to each term in (15p+50) - * 15p = (-1 * 15)p = -15p - * 50 = (-1 * 50) = -50 Our Total expanded term is -15p-50
Our new term is 30p - 15p - 50 = 295
Simplify by removing parentheses Our new term is 30p - 15p - 50 = 295
Group the p terms on the left:
(30 - 15)p = 15p
Form modified equation
15p - 50 = + 295
Group constants
Group our constants -50 and 295. add 50 to both sides 15p - 50 + 50 = 295 + 50
Cancel 50 on the left side:
15p = 345
Divide each side of the equation by 15
15p
15
=
345
15
p = 23
p = 23
What is the Answer?
p = 23
