I was thinking I could multiply both 2's together... thus getting 4 then 4 times π
OpenStudy (mathlegend):
?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
isolate p2 first by dividing by 2(pi)
OpenStudy (mathlegend):
ok so I get \[\frac{ 22 }{ 2π }=p2\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yep

OpenStudy (mathlegend):
then would I just divide the 2?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
is that a power?
If so, wouldn't you square root it?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
that's a little ahead
OpenStudy (mathlegend):
It is not an exponent

p is raised to the power of 2?
OpenStudy (mathlegend):
No
OpenStudy (mathlegend):
22/2π \[\div \] 2
OpenStudy (mathlegend):
So I should get 11π = p? @Doman
OpenStudy (anonymous):
what happened to the 2 after p

Divided it
OpenStudy (mathlegend):
22/2 / 2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
if it was a coefficient, 2 would be in front of the variable p.
Doman and I were assuming that was an exponent.
OpenStudy (mathlegend):
oops... 22/2π / 2
OpenStudy (mathlegend):
\[\frac{ 22 }{ 2π} \div 2\]

@Doman now what do I do?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
keep simplifying by dividing
OpenStudy (mathlegend):
So I get 11π right? @Doman
OpenStudy (anonymous):
22=(2)(2)(pi)(p)
22/(2*2)=(pi)(p)
11/2=(pi)p
11/(2pi)=p
