Answer:
p = 0.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Distribute
29.91 - 1.35p = -5.7(-6p - 4)
29.91 - 1.35p = 34.2p + 22.8
Step 2: Add 1.35p to both sides
29.91 - 1.35p + 1.35p = 34.2p + 22.8 + 1.35p
29.91 = 35.55p + 22.8
Step 3: Subtract 22.8 from both sides
29.91 - 22.8 = 35.55p + 22.8 - 22.8
7.11 = 35.55p
Step 4: Divide both sides by 35.55
7.11 / 35.55 = 35.55p / 35.55
0.2 = p
Answer: p = 0.2
