-6(2p + 1) = -7p - 31

P=5

Step-by-step explanation:

-6(2p + 1) = -7p - 31

Expand -6(2p+1)

Apply distributive law;

a=-6, b=2p, c=1

=-6*2p+(-6)*1

=-6*2p-6*1

Simplify; -6*2p-6*1

=-12p-6

-12p-6=-7p-31

Add 6 to both sides;

-12p-6+6=-7p-31+6

simplify;

-12p=-7p-25

Add 7p to both sides;

-12p+7p=-7p-25+7p

Simplify;

-5p=-25

Divide both sides by -5

-5p/-5=-25/-5

Simplify:

p=5

p=5

Step-by-step explanation:

first you want to get rid of the parentheses in -6(2p+1) so take -6 and times it by 2p and 1 to get -12p-6. You can do this because of the distributive property. Now you have the equation -12p - 6 = -7p - 31. So now you want to get the p values on one side. Adding 7p to both sides of the equations get rid of the -7p. -12p + 7p equals -5p so now you have the equation -5p - 6 = -31. so now you need to get the whole numbers on one side. So add 6 to both sides so you can get rid of the -6. this leaves you with the equation -5p= -25. Now to find the value of p you divide both sides by -5. This gives you p = 5.

-3

step-by-step explanation:

a drawing really does here:

so i draw the horizontal line y=2 and the vertical line x=-2 at this intersection i put b (this is where my right angle is going to be).   so point b is at (-2,2).   point a is 5 units long and is also on y=2 so this point has to be (3,2) or (-7,2) -doesn't matter i will go with (3,2).

now we know c is at (-2,y) we don't know the y yet bet we know that c is on x=-2.

we have the area of the triangle is .5bh=12.5

we know the base length is 5 (ab)

we have the height is (2-y) if you look at your

plug in

.5(5)(2-y)=12.5

solve for y to get the y-coordinate for c

2.5(2-y)=12.5

divide both sides by 2.5 giving:

2-y=5

now subtract 2 on both sides

-y=3

y=-3

22.83 repeating

step-by-step explanation:

137 ÷ 6 is 22.8333333 therefore we understand that 3 is repeating.
