Answer:
p =5
Step-by-step explanation:
3p − 5 = 10
Add 5 to each side
3p-5+5 =10+5
3p = 15
Divide each side by 3
3p/3 = 15/3
3(5p - 3) = 5(p - 1)
Distributive property.
15p - 9 = 5p - 5
Subtract 5p from both sides.
10p - 9 = -5
Add 9 to both sides.
10p = 4
Divide both sides by 10.
p = 0.4
The value of p is 0.4.
