To solve for p, we need to isolate the variable on one side of the equation.
First, we can subtract 1.2 from both sides of the equation:
0.75p = 6.5 - 1.2
Simplifying the right side:
0.75p = 5.3
Finally, to solve for p, we divide both sides of the equation by 0.75:
p = 5.3 / 0.75
p ≈ 7.067
1.2 +0.75p=6.5
