Exercise 67 Page 117

Use the Division Property of Equality to eliminate the coefficient.

5.5

Practice makes perfect
To solve the equation, we have to isolate p on one side. Using the Division Property of Equality, we will divide both sides of the equation by 4. This will eliminate the coefficient and isolate p.
4p=22
p=22/4
p=5.5
