-7 + 11p = 3p - 47
Please help me figure out how to work it out

p = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

11p-3p = 8p

-47+ 7 = -40

8p = -40

-40/8 = -5

p = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

-7 + 11p = 3p - 47

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−7 + 11p = 3p − 47

−7 + 11p = 3p + − 47

11p −7 = 3p − 47

Step 2: Subtract 3p from both sides.

11p − 7 − 3p = 3p − 47 − 3p

8p − 7 = −47

Step 3: Add 7 to both sides.

8p − 7 + 7 = −47 + 7

8p = −40

Step 4: Divide both sides by 8.

8p/8 = 40/8

p = -5

$4034.40

the perimeter of the field is the sum of the lengths of the four sides:

47 yd + 158 yd + 47 yd + 158 yd = 410 yd

the cost of 3 ft (1 yd) of fence is 3×$3.28 = $9.84.

so the cost of jake's wood perimeter fance is

(410 yd) × ($9.84 /yd) = $4034.40
