p/4 =(p+5)/9

\frac{p}{4} = \frac{p + 5}{9}

p = 4

Solution steps

\frac{p}{4} = \frac{p + 5}{9}

Apply fraction cross multiply: if

\frac{a}{b} = \frac{c}{d}

then

a \cdot d = b \cdot c

p \cdot 9 = 4 (p + 5)

Expand

4 (p + 5) : 4 p + 20

p \cdot 9 = 4 p + 20

Move

4 p

to the left side

5 p = 20

Divide both sides by

5

p = 4

w^{2} = - 4

64 x^{2} - 9 = 0

3 (x + 4) (x - 6) \geq 0

(x + 4) (x - 2) \geq 0

1 + \frac{9}{5}
