Question

3 + 2p = 10p - 13

Explanation:

Step1: Move terms with p to one - side

Subtract 2p from both sides: $3 + 2p-2p=10p - 13-2p$, which simplifies to $3 = 8p-13$.

Step2: Move constant to the other side

Add 13 to both sides: $3 + 13=8p-13 + 13$, which gives $16 = 8p$.

Step3: Solve for p

Divide both sides by 8: $\frac{16}{8}=\frac{8p}{8}$, so $p = 2$.

Answer:

$p = 2$
