To subtract the expression (p - 3) - (2.4 + 2p), we distribute the negative sign to both terms inside the second parentheses:
(p - 3) - (2.4 + 2p) = p - 3 - 2.4 - 2p.
Next, we can combine like terms by combining the p terms and the constant terms:
(p - 2p) - (3 + 2.4) = -p - 5.4.
Therefore, (p - 3) - (2.4 + 2p) simplifies to -p - 5.4.
(p - 3) - (2.4 + 2p) = p - 3 - 2.4 - 2p.
Next, we can combine like terms by combining the p terms and the constant terms:
(p - 2p) - (3 + 2.4) = -p - 5.4.
Therefore, (p - 3) - (2.4 + 2p) simplifies to -p - 5.4.
