Answer:

  • [tex]\boxed{\sf{3p=5}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find:

  • The value of p

Given:

  • 7p + 4 = −p + 9 + 2p + 3p

[tex]\sf{7p+4=-p+9+2p+3p}[/tex]

Isolate the term of p, from one side of the equation.

Combine like terms.

[tex]\rightarrow \sf{7p+4=-p+2p+3p+9}[/tex]

Add the numbers from left to right.

-p+2p+3p=4p

7p+4=4p+9

Then, you subtract by 4 from both sides.

[tex]\sf{7p+4-4=4p+9-4}[/tex]

Solve.

7p=4p+5

Subtract by 4p from both sides.

7p-4p=4p+5-4p

Solve.

[tex]\boxed{\sf{3p=5}}[/tex]

Divide by 3 from both sides.

3p/3=5/3

Solve.

p=5/3

Divide is another option.

5/3=1.6666

So, the final answer is 3p=5.

I hope this helps, let me know if you have any questions.
