Draven Ferrell · Answer 1

x = - 22.5

Step-by-step explanation:

5-3x=Px + R

r = 7

P = 42

5-3x = 42x + 7

-3x - 42x = 7 - 5

-45x = 2

x = - 22.5

Jillian Hatfield · Answer 2

p=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

5-3x = Px + 7

-7 from both sides

-2-3x=Px+7

add 3x to both sides

-2=Px+3x

P = -3 because it will get rid of variable
