Solution - Linear equations with one unknown

Rearrange:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

                -(1-3*p)+4*(1-4*p)-(-49)=0 

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

Equation at the end of step  1  :

  ((3p - 1) +  4 • (1 - 4p)) -  -49  = 0 

Step  2  :

Step  3  :

Pulling out like terms :

 3.1     Pull out like factors :

   52 - 13p  =   -13 • (p - 4) 

Equation at the end of step  3  :

  -13 • (p - 4)  = 0 

Step  4  :

Equations which are never true :

 4.1      Solve :    -13   =  0

This equation has no solution.
A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

 4.2      Solve  :    p-4 = 0 

 Add  4  to both sides of the equation : 
                      p = 4
