thinker361: hi i am kinda new to this wed but what is the answer to -2p=-38? i am confuzzeled
To solve an equation you need to have the unknown variable on one side all alone. To do this you have to get rid of -2 in front of p, to do that you have to divide both sides by -2.
-2p = -38 | /-2
p = -38/-2 = 38/2 = 19
