Answer:
p= -13
Step-by-step explanation:
First step to this equation is to add(or subtract) the variables.
4p-p= 3p
3p+8= 2p-5
Then, you have to move the variable to one side.
3p+8= 2p-5
-2p -2p
Now that you have done this, subtract 8 to both sides.
1p+8= -5
-8 -8
Since a negative minus a negative equals a negative, -5-8= -13.
1p= -13
Divide to both sides by 1.
1p= -13
1 1
p= -13
