2(P +1) + 3(P + 2 ) > 2

OpenStudy (swissgirl):

OK first step is to simplify YOu gotta do distributive property and then gather like terms

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2p+2+3p+6=2

OpenStudy (swissgirl):

exactly 2p+2+3p+6>2 Now we gotta gather like terms

OpenStudy (swissgirl):

so it becomes 5p+8>2

OpenStudy (swissgirl):

Agreed?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (swissgirl):

Ok then we subtract 8 from both sides 5p+8>2-8 5p>-7

OpenStudy (swissgirl):

Then we divide 5 from both sides \(\large {5p \over 5}>-{7 \over 5} \) \( \large p>-{7 \over 5} \)
