Question

Solve. 2/3(p+3)=1/3-P

Answer 1

get rid of fraction! multiply both sides by 3

Answer 2

\[\frac{2}{3}(p+3)=\frac{1}{3}-p\]
\[3\left(\frac{2}{3}(p+3)\right)=3\times \left(\frac{1}{3}-p\right)\]
\[2(p+3)=1-3p\]

Answer 3

then proceed as usual
\[2p+6=1-3p\]\[5p+6=1\] etc

Answer 4

yay i was doing the process right :)

Answer 5

let's see if i get it right

Answer 6

Do you have to add 5p to each sides? @satellite73

Answer 7

typo there
after
\[2p+6=1-3p\] add \(3p\) to both sides gives
\[5p+6=1\]
now subtact \(6\) from both sides

Answer 8

you want all the \(p\) terms on one side, all numbers on the other
you should get \(5p=-5\) then divide by 5

Answer 9

would it be \[\frac{ -5 }{ 5 }\]

Answer 10

Never mind got it's -1

Answer 11

Thanks
