Question

If x=p+2, find the value of 'p' from equation p-x-3/3=2/3(4-x)

Answer 1

Answer:

w

Step-by-step explanat:

x=p+2

p-p-2 -3 / 3= 2/3 (4-p-2)

-5/3 = 2/3 (2-p)

-5/3 ×3/2 =2-p

-5/2 = 2-p

-p = -5/2-2

p = 9/2

Answer 2

The correct value of p are 0 and  $\frac{3}{2}$.

Given: The equation = x = p+2.

The equation = $p-\frac{x-3}{3}=\frac{2}{3(4-x)}$.

To Find: The value of p.

Solution:

$p-\frac{x-3}{3}=\frac{2}{3(4-x)}$

$\frac{3p-x+3}{3}=\frac{2}{3(4-x)}$

Put x = p+2 in the equation.

$\frac{3p-(p+2)+3}{1}=\frac{2}{(4-(p+2))}$

$2p+1=\frac{2}{2-p}$

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

4p - $2p^{2}$ + 2 - p = 2

$3p-2p^{2}$=0

p(3-2p) = 0

p = 0, $\frac{3}{2}$

Hence, the value of p are 0 and  $\frac{3}{2}$.
