Solve for p over the real numbers:
abs(6 - 7 p) = 13
Split the equation into two possible cases:
6 - 7 p = 13 or 6 - 7 p = -13
Subtract 6 from both sides:
-7 p = 7 or 6 - 7 p = -13
Divide both sides by -7:
p = -1 or 6 - 7 p = -13
Subtract 6 from both sides:
p = -1 or -7 p = -19
Divide both sides by -7:
Answer: |p = -1 or p = 19/7
