Solve. -6p-4=-6-5p

OpenStudy (anonymous):

get the like terms on one side. So -6p+5p gives you what now?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-6p-4=-6-5p -p-4=-6 -p=-2 p=2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait how come it isn't -2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

because the -p when you divide a negative by a negative it's a positive!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-2/-1 equals 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh! that's right thanks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no prob!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

because u are looking for p not -p, so u make everything on the other side -

OpenStudy (anonymous):
