Solve the equation. 3p - 1 = 5 (p - 1) - 2 (7 - 2p) 3 - 9 - 10 0

Step-by-step explanation:

3p - 1 = 5 (p - 1) - 2 (7 - 2p) 3 - 9 - 10 First Distribute

3p-1 = 5p-5-42+12p-9-10 Simplify all like factors

3p-1=17p-66 Add 66 on both sides

3p+65=17p Subtract 3p from both sides

65=15p Divide both sides by 15

p=4.3

if it is a 100

3p - 1 = 5 (p - 1) - 2 (7 - 2p) 3 - 9 - 100 First Distribute

3p-1 = 5p-5-42+12p-9-100 Simplify all like factors

3p-1=17p-156 Add 156 on both sides

3p+155=17p Subtract 3p on both sides

155 = 15p divide both sides by 15

10.3=p
