Full solution

Q. Solve for pp.\newline6=3(p7)6 = 3(p - 7)\newlinep=p = _____
  1. Simplify Expression: Simplify 3(p7)3(p - 7) using the distributive property.\newline3(p7)=3p213(p - 7) = 3p - 21
  2. Set up Equation: Set up the equation to isolate pp.6=3p216 = 3p - 21
  3. Add to Solve: Add 2121 to both sides to solve for 3p3p. \newline6+21=3p21+216 + 21 = 3p - 21 + 21\newline27=3p27 = 3p
  4. Divide to Find: Divide both sides by 33 to find pp.3p3=273\frac{3p}{3} = \frac{27}{3}p=9p = 9
