Question

Find the value of the unknown in the equation 4p + 2 = 8
a) p = 0
b) p = 2.3
c) p = 1.5
d) p = 4

Answer 1

Answer:

Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

=> 4p + 2 = 8

Subtracting 2 to both sides

=> 4p = 8-2

=> 4p = 6

Dividing both sides by 4

=> p = 1.5

Answer 2

Answer:

The answer is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to subtract 2 to both sides :

$4p + 2 = 8$

$4p + 2 - 2 = 8 - 2$

$4p = 6$

Next, you have to divide it by 4 :

$4p = 6$

$p = 6 \div 4$

$p = 3 \div 2$

$p = 1.5$
