Question

Find the value of p for which x =-2, y=-1 is a solution of the linear equation 5x +2py =2p

Answer 1

Answer:

-2( whole number)2/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Since x=-2 and y=-1, replace the variables(letters) in the equation with their corresponding numbers.

5(-2)+2p(-1)=2p

Expand to remove the brackets.

⇒-10-2p=2p

Group like terms

⇒-10=2p+2p

⇒-10=4p

⇒-10/4=4p/4

∴p=-2( whole number)2/4
