Nana · Answer 1

|7p+4|/8=3

1/8 (|7p+4|) = 3

Divide both sides by 1/8.

1/8 (|7p+4|) 1/8=3/1/8

|7p+4|=24

Solve Absolute Value.

|7p+4|=24

7p+4=24 or 7p+4=-24

7p+4=24

7p+4-4=24-4 (Subtract 4 from both sides)

7p=20

7p/7=20/7 (Divide both sides by 7)

p=20/7

7p+4=-24

7p+4-4=-24-4 (Subtract 4 from both sides)

7p=-28

7p/7=-28/7 (Divide both sides by 7)

p=-4

P = 2.85714285714.

First you multiply 3 x 8

which gives 24

you subtract 4

which gives you 20

then you divide 20 by 7

Which gives you P = 2.85714285714
