Question:

Solve: \(2(p -5) + 3 = 2p – 7\)

A There is an infinite number of solution ( any value of p works).
explanation

Given \(2(p - 5) + 3 = 2p - 7\)
Opening it up (distributing the 2) we get:
\(2p + 2×(-5) + 3 = 2p - 7\)
⇒\(2p - 10 + 3 = 2p - 7\)
⇒ \(2p - 7 = 2p - 7\)
This is always true for any value of p.
