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 :

                -4*(-3*p+6)-5*p-(10*p)=0 

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

Step  2  :

Pulling out like terms :

 2.1     Pull out like factors :

   -3p + 6  =   -3 • (p - 2) 

Equation at the end of step  2  :

  ((0 -  -12 • (p - 2)) -  5p) -  10p  = 0 

Step  3  :

Step  4  :

Pulling out like terms :

 4.1     Pull out like factors :

   -3p - 24  =   -3 • (p + 8) 

Equation at the end of step  4  :

  -3 • (p + 8)  = 0 

Step  5  :

Equations which are never true :

 5.1      Solve :    -3   =  0

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

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

 5.2      Solve  :    p+8 = 0 

 Subtract  8  from both sides of the equation : 
                      p = -8
