Question

$4 = 5(p - 2)$
​

Answer 1

Answer:

$4 = 5(p - 2)$

$4 = 5p - 10$

$4 + 10 = 5p$

$14 = 5p$

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

Answer 2

Answer:

The value of p in 4 = 5(p-2) is 2.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

• 4 = 5(p-2) -----------------------(i)

We have to find the value of p.

In equation-(i),

4 = 5(p-2)

$\dfrac{4}{5}$ = p - 2

$\dfrac{4}{5}$ + 2 = p

$\dfrac{4+10}{5}$ = p

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

p = 2.8
