Question

solve for p.
70.23 + 55.2p > 72.4p - 91.45
write your answer with p first, followed by an inequality symbol.

Explanation:

Step1: Move terms with p to one side

$70.23 + 91.45>72.4p - 55.2p$

Step2: Calculate the sums on both sides

$161.68 > 17.2p$

Step3: Solve for p

$p<\frac{161.68}{17.2}$
$p < 9.4$

Answer:

$p < 9.4$
