Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
5(4x + p) = w
Reorder the terms:
5(p + 4x) = w
(p * 5 + 4x * 5) = w
(5p + 20x) = w
Solving
5p + 20x = w
Solving for variable 'p'.
Move all terms containing p to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-20x' to each side of the equation.
5p + 20x + -20x = w + -20x
Combine like terms: 20x + -20x = 0
5p + 0 = w + -20x
5p = w + -20x
Divide each side by '5'.
p = 0.2w + -4x
Simplifying
p = 0.2w + -4x
