P+7/P-6=1/3

Cross multiply

3P+21=P-6

2P=-27

Therefore p is -27/2

Answer 2

Answer:

$\frac{p + 7}{p - 6} = \frac{1}{3} \\ \\ 3p + 21 = p - 6 \\ \\ 3p - p = - 6 - 21 \\ 2p = - 27 \\ p = \frac{ - 27}{2} = - 13.5$

Verification;

put

p= -13.5

-13.5 +7

= ______

-13.5 -6

=-6.5/-19.5

=-1/-3

=1/3
