To solve these types of problems:

 ⇒ just solve like a regular algebraic equation

     ⇒ with an inequality sign in the middle

Let's solve:

           [tex]-3p + 2 > 5\\-3p > 3[/tex]

  •   whenever there is any division/multiplication

                ⇒ must change the inequality sign to face the other direction

            [tex]-3p > 3\\p < -1[/tex]

Answer: p < -1

Hope that helps!

Answer:

p < -1

Step-by-step explanation:

-3p + 2 > 5

subtract 2 from both sides

-3p + 2 - 2 > 5 - 2

-3p > 3

divided both sides by -3 to get p alone

-3p / -3 > 3 / -3           reverse the inequality

p > -1
