What is the value of p in the equation 4p + 3(p + 4) = 12p + 12?
12
1
0
−1
HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):
okay, so here you would just distribute
HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):
like so:
3(p+4) = 3p+12
HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):
so you would have 4p+3p+12=12p+12
HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):
Then you would solve it just like I did in the previous problem :)
@AliSurfCat can you figure it out from here, or would you like some more guidance?

HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):
4p+3p+12=12p+12
7p+12=12p+12
-7p -7p
-----------
12=5p+12
-12 -12
---------
5p=0
p=0 \(\checkmark\)
Nice work! And yes, we can medal each other :)
