p = -18/6 = -3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
p-6 = -18
OpenStudy (anonymous):
u divide both sides of the equation by 6
OpenStudy (anonymous):
p= -3??
OpenStudy (anonymous):
6p/ 6 = -18/ 6
so p = -3

ok saw ther question again, jimmy is doing it right
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh sorry i missed that second equation
p - 6 = -18
add 6 to both sides
p = -18 + 6 = -12
OpenStudy (anonymous):
p = -12?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):

alright
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so w = -108
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yep
OpenStudy (anonymous):
see you have to use opposite operations
if it is addition, use its opposite subtraction
if it is subtraction, use addition
if it is multiplication, use division
if it is division, use multiplication

subtract
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
but before you said add why is it different that is what is confusing me
OpenStudy (anonymous):
sorry if i confused you - what i meant was 3/4 is being added to both sides so we need to subtract 3/4 from both sides
