Question

8 p minus 5 by 7 P + 1 equal to minus 2 by 4​

Answer 1

Answer:

To find the solution of the equation first cross multiply the equation

8p-5/

By cross multiplication we get

4(8p-5) = -2 (7p+1)

Multiplying the equation with 4 and -2, we get:

32p - 20= -14p - 2  

Now putting the p sides in one place and numbers in another, we get:

32p + 14p = 20-2  

46p = 18

By simplifying the value of p is

p=18/46= 9/23

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

SOLUTION :

$\sf \frac{8p - 5}{7p + 1} = - \frac{2}{4}$

$\sf \implies \frac{8p - 5}{7p + 1} = - \cancel\frac{2}{4} _2$

$\sf \implies - 16p + 10 = 7p + 1$

$\sf \implies \: p = \frac{9}{23}$
