Question

the solution of an equation 5(x+p)=15 is as same as the solution of the equation 3x-1=2. Find the value of p​

Answer 1

Answer:

follow the method

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-1=2

x-1=2-3

x-1=-1

x=-1+1

x=0

then ,

x = 0

so,

5(0+p)=15

0+5p=15

5p=15-0

5p=15

p=15/5

p=3

so the value of x=0 & p=3

Answer 2

5(x+p)=15
5x+5p=15
x=(15-5p)/5

3x-1=2
x=1

Therefore, 1=(15-5p)/5
5=15-5p
5p=10
P=10/5=2
