5p-2p=(-12) what is p?

p = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation:

5*p-2*p-(-12)=0  

Step  1  :

Pulling out like terms :

1.1     Pull out like factors :

3p + 12  =   3 • (p + 4)  

Step  2  :

Equations which are never true :

2.1      Solve :    3   =  0

A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

2.2      Solve  :    p+4 = 0  

 Subtract  4  from both sides of the equation :  

                     p = -4

One solution was found :

                  p = -4

Also to check the work:

5x-4=-20

2x-4=-8

-20 - -8= -12

6,250

step-by-step explanation:

to get the area, multiply 360 by 160.(57,600)

to find out how many bags of fertilizer it will take, first figure out how many square feet one bag can hold. divide 1000 by 8(125) to get the unit rate(how many square feet one pound of fertilizer can hold)and multiply it by 50(6250). if i haven't made a mistake, that is the answer.
