To solve the equation, we can simplify and then isolate the variable.
First, distribute the 2 on the right side of the equation:
2(p - 6) = 4 + 2(p - 6)
2p - 12 = 4 + 2p - 12
Next, combine like terms:
-12 = 4
Since -12 is not equal to 4, this means that there is no solution to the equation.
What is the solution to the following equation?
two-thirds (p + 6) = 4 + 2 (p – 6)
