Okay so for this, you’ll end up with 2 answers because it contains an Absolute Value function. \(-5=|8-p|-11\) So, split this into two equations. \(-5=8-p-11\) \(-(-5)=8-p-11\) Now, solve each of these. \(-5=8-p-11\) Combine like terms \(-5=-p-3\) Get p by itself \(-2=-p\) Divide by -1 to get p by itself \(2=p\) \(-(-5)=8-p-11\) Simplify and combine like terms \(5=-p-3\) Get p by itself \(8=-p\) Divide by -1 to get p by itself \(-8=p\) OVERVIEW: - Separate the function into two equations - Solve for p on each of the equations
