Question

Solve for p.
80 + 10 = 5p - 8

Answer 1

Answer:

80+10=5p-8

$\mathrm{Switch\:sides}$

$5p-8=80+10$

$\mathrm{Add\:the\:numbers:}\:80+10=90$

$5p-8=90$

$\mathrm{Add\:}8\mathrm{\:to\:both\:sides}$

$5p-8+8=90+8$

$\mathrm{Simplify}$

$5p=98$

$\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}5$

$\frac{5p}{5}=\frac{98}{5}$

$\mathrm{Simplify}$

$p=\frac{98}{5}$

Answer 2

$\huge\text{Hey there!}$

$\large\textsf{80 + 10 = 5p - 8}$

$\large\textsf{90 = 5p - 8}$

$\large\textsf{5p - 8 = 90}$

$\large\text{ADD 8 to BOTH SIDES}$

$\large\textsf{5p - 8 + 8 = 90 + 8}$

$\large\text{CANCEL out: -8 + 8 because gives you 0}\\\\\large\text{KEEP: 90 + 8 because helps solve for the p-value}$

$\large\textsf{90 + 8 = \bf 98}$

$\large\text{New EQUATION: \textsf{5p = 98}}$

$\large\text{DIVIDE 5 to BOTH SIDES}$

$\large\boxed{\mathsf{\dfrac{5p}{5} = \dfrac{98}{5}}}$

$\large\text{Cancel out: }\rm{\dfrac{5}{5}}\large\text{ because that gives you 1}\\\\\large\text{KEEP: }\rm{\dfrac{98}{5}}\large\text{ because it gives you the value of p or the answer of p}$

$\large\text{SIMPLIFY ABOVE AND YOU HAVE YOUR ANSWER OF P}$

$\huge\boxed{\rm{Therefore, your\ answer: p = \dfrac{98}{5}}}\huge\checkmark$

$\huge\text{Good luck on your assignment \& enjoy your day!}$
