Question

solve the equation 4(y + 5) = 21.
what is the value of 4p?
4(p + 5) = 21
4p + 20 = 21

• 20 - 20 subtract 20 on both sides

4p = \square

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the equation after subtraction

We have the equation \(4p + 20 - 20=21 - 20\).
Simplifying both sides, the left side \(4p+20 - 20\) becomes \(4p\) and the right side \(21-20 = 1\).

Step2: Determine the value of \(4p\)

From the simplification in Step 1, we get \(4p=1\).

Answer:

\(1\)
