Question

-p-(11-p+3p)-8p=0 solve for p and verify your answer
​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

= -p-(11-p+3p)-8p = 0

= -p-11+p-3p-8p = 0

=-11p-11 = 0

=-11p = -11

= p = -1

Therefore the answer is -1...

Answer 2

Answer:

$\large\boxed{p=-1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To identify the variable, first you have to isolate it on one side of the equation. Remember to solve this problem, make sure to add or subtracting expression numbers from left to right. Also, you'd solve with distributive property of a(b+c)=ab+ac.

$\large\boxed{\textnormal{Adding or Subtracting Expressions}}$

Given:

-p-(11-p+3p)-8p=0

First, you have to combined like terms. (group like terms or switch sides.)

$\displaystyle -p-8p-(-p+3p+11)=0$

Secondly, you do is add similar to elements from left to right.

$\displaystyle -p-8p=-9p$

$\displaystyle -9p-(3p-p+11)=0$

$\displaystyle -p+3p=2p$

$\displaystyle -9p-(2p+11)=0$

Thirdly, solve with distributive property to expand the form.

$\large\boxed{\textnormal{Distributive Property}}$

$\displaystyle a(b+c)=ab+ac$

$\displaystyle -(2p+11)=-2p-11$

Rewrite the problem down.

$\displaystyle -9p-2p=-11$

Add numbers from left to right.

$\displaystyle -9p-2p=-11p$

$\displaystyle =-11p-11$

$\displaystyle -11p-11=0$

Solution and Solve:

Next, add 11 from both sides.

$\displaystyle -11p-11+11=0+11$

Solve.

$\displaystyle 0+11=11$

$\displaystyle -11p=11$

Then, divide by -11 from both sides.

$\displaystyle \frac{-11p}{-11}=\frac{11}{-11}$

Solve.

$\displaystyle 11\div-11=\boxed{-1}$

$\large\boxed{p=-1}$

The correct answer is p=-1.
