Question 770165
{{{7-p=3p+5}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{-p=3p+5-7}}} Subtract {{{7}}} from both sides.



{{{-p-3p=5-7}}} Subtract {{{3p}}} from both sides.



{{{-4p=5-7}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{-4p=-2}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{p=(-2)/(-4)}}} Divide both sides by {{{-4}}} to isolate {{{p}}}.



{{{p=1/2}}} Reduce.

Answer:


So the solution is {{{p=1/2}}}
