What is the value of p ln the linear equation 24p+12-18p=10+2p-6

p = - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

24p+12-18p=10+2p-6

First step is to combine like terms

6p + 12 = 2p+4

Subtract 2p from each side

6p-2p + 12 = 2p-2p+4

4p+12 = 4

Subtract 12 to each side

4p-12+12 = 4-12

4p = - 8

Divide each side by 4

4p/4 = - 8/4

p = - 2
