Question

solve the equation 4=5(p-2)

Answer 1

Answer:

The solution of the equation is $p=\frac{14}{5}$          

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Equation $4=5(p-2)$

To find : Solve the equation?

Solution :

Step 1 - Write the equation,

$4=5(p-2)$

Step 2 - Apply distributive property, $a(b+c)=ab+ac$

$4=5p-10$

Step 3 - Add 10 both side,

$4+10=5p-10+10$

$14=5p$

Step 4 - Divide 5 both side,

$\frac{14}{5}=\frac{5p}{5}$

$\frac{14}{5}=p$

Therefore, The solution of the equation is $p=\frac{14}{5}$

Answer 2

Answer:

$Value \: of \: p = \frac{14}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given simple equation:

$4=5(p-2)$

$\implies 4=5p-10$

/* By distributive property:

a(b+c)= ab+ac */

/* Add both sides by 10, we get

$\implies 4+10=5p-10+10$

$\implies 14=5p$

/* Divide both sides by 5, we get

$\implies \frac{14}{5}=p$

Therefore,

$Value \: of \: p = \frac{14}{5}$
