Malik Figueroa · Answer 1

P=6.06. If you do what's in the parentheses first you get 54 and then you multiply that with 35p and get 1890p. Then you divide each side by 312 and get 6.057 or 6.06 if you round it down to the hundredths.

Simplifying 35p (1 + 53) = 312 Combine like terms: 1 + 53 = 54 35p (54) = 312 Reorder the terms for easier multiplication: 35 * 54p = 312 Multiply 35 * 54 1890p = 312 Solving 1890p = 312 Solving for variable 'p'. Move all terms containing p to the left, all other terms to the right. Divide each side by '1890'. p = 0.1650793651 Simplifying p = 0.1650793651
