Answer:

-5(p+3/5)=-4 what is the answer

The answer is P = 1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

from the question -5(p+3/5)=-4  applying the law of BODMAS we will use -5 to open the bracket

we have [-5(p) + -5×3/5] = -4

-5p - 3 =-4

collecting the like terms

we have; -5p = -4 + 3

-5p = -1

divide both sides by -5

we have; -5p/-5 = -1/-5

the minus sign cancels out and we have

p= 1/5

check your answer by sloting the value of p into the question -5(p+3/5)=-4

-5(1/5 + 3/5) = -4

-4=-4
