Question

Solve the following equation and verify your answer p + 7 /p -6=1 by 3

Answer 1

Answer:

p+7/p-6=1/3

= 3p+21 = p-6

27=2p

p=13.5

Answer 2

Answer:

Answer: p = 3

VERIFICATION✔

7 ( p + 2 ) = 5 ( p + 4 )

Putting p = 2

7 ( 2 + 2 ) = 5 ( 2 + 4 )

7×4 = 5×6

28 = 30

Here,

LHS is not equal to RHS

Hence p is not 2

7 ( p + 2 ) = 5 ( p + 4 )

Putting p = 3

7 ( 3 + 2 ) = 5 ( 3 + 4 )

7×5 = 5×7

35 = 35

Here,

LHS = RHS

Hence, p = 3
