Apologies for the mistake. Let's solve the equation correctly:
82.78(p + 11.892) = 72.8464
First, distribute 82.78 to the terms inside the parentheses:
82.78p + (82.78 * 11.892) = 72.8464
Multiply:
82.78p + 981.829616 = 72.8464
Subtract 981.829616 from both sides:
82.78p = 72.8464 - 981.829616
Combine like terms:
82.78p = -908.983216
Divide both sides by 82.78:
p = -908.983216 / 82.78
The solution for p, without rounding, is approximately:
p = -10.96458
82.78(p + 11.892) = 72.8464
First, distribute 82.78 to the terms inside the parentheses:
82.78p + (82.78 * 11.892) = 72.8464
Multiply:
82.78p + 981.829616 = 72.8464
Subtract 981.829616 from both sides:
82.78p = 72.8464 - 981.829616
Combine like terms:
82.78p = -908.983216
Divide both sides by 82.78:
p = -908.983216 / 82.78
The solution for p, without rounding, is approximately:
p = -10.96458
