Q. Solve for pp. \newline8.2p7.9p+2.37-8.2p \leq -7.9p + 2.37\newlineWrite your answer with pp first, followed by an inequality symbol.\newline______
  1. Isolate variable pp: Isolate the variable pp on one side of the inequality.\newline8.2p7.9p+2.37-8.2p \leq -7.9p + 2.37\newline8.2p+7.9p2.37-8.2p + 7.9p \leq 2.37\newline0.3p2.37-0.3p \leq 2.37
  2. Divide and flip inequality: Divide both sides by 0.3-0.3 to solve for pp, remembering to flip the inequality sign because we are dividing by a negative number.\newline0.3p/0.32.37/0.3-0.3p / -0.3 \geq 2.37 / -0.3\newlinep7.9p \geq -7.9
