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 :

                     10*p-3-(2*(12+4*p)-7)=0 

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

Step  2  :

Pulling out like terms :

 2.1     Pull out like factors :

   12 + 4p  =   4 • (p + 3) 

Equation at the end of step  2  :

  (10p - 3) -  (8 • (p + 3) -  7)  = 0 

Step  3  :

Step  4  :

Pulling out like terms :

 4.1     Pull out like factors :

   2p - 20  =   2 • (p - 10) 

Equation at the end of step  4  :

  2 • (p - 10)  = 0 

Step  5  :

Equations which are never true :

 5.1      Solve :    2   =  0

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

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

 5.2      Solve  :    p-10 = 0 

 Add  10  to both sides of the equation : 
                      p = 10
