Answer: p =(-8)/17
Step-by-step explanation:
5(7p+5/3) - 23/3 =13(4p - (-2/3))
35p + 25/3 - 23/3 = 52p - (-26/3)
35p + 2/3 =52p + 26/3
now taking the lcm for 35p and 2/3 which is 3
(105p + 2)/3 = 52p + 26/3
now taking the lcm for 52p and 26/3 which is 3
(105p + 2)/3 = (156p + 26)/3
so i am now gonna cancel the two 3's on each side
now i am going to transpose the numbers on one side and the p's on one side.
2 - 26 = 156p - 105p
-24 = 51p
p = (-24)/51
when simplyfying this with 3 you get
(-8)/17
Answer: (-8)/17
