p = - \frac{72}{7} or p = 8

Decimal Notation

p = - 10.28571 \dots, p = 8

Solution steps

9 - ∣ - 8 - 7 p ∣ = - 55

Move

9

to the right side

- ∣ - 8 - 7 p ∣ = - 64

Divide both sides by

- 1

∣ - 8 - 7 p ∣ = 64

Apply absolute rule: If

∣ u ∣ = a, a > 0

then

u = a

u = - a

- 8 - 7 p = - 64 or - 8 - 7 p = 64

- 8 - 7 p = - 64 or - 8 - 7 p = 64

p = - \frac{72}{7} or p = 8

- ∣ 2 x + 5 ∣ = - 7

\frac{∣ 2 x + 2 ∣}{5} = - 3

23 = ∣ b + 4 ∣

∣ 13 p - 6 ∣ = 21

8 - 4 ∣ 4 x + 4 ∣ = - 32
