Answer:
p=6
Step-by-step explanation:
Start out by adding +5p to both sides of the equation
You should now have -3p-20=-(5p+8)
Now you need to distribute the negative (-) to both 5p and 8
After distributing the negative your equation should look like -3p-20=-5p-8
Now add 5p to both sides!
You should have 2p-20=-8
Now add twenty to both sides!
You should have 2p=12
Divide 2 from both sides!
You should end up with p=6
