The solution set {} is the solution to two equations.

1 answer

To find a value that is a solution to two of the equations, we need to solve each equation for its variable.

  1. For the first equation:
    \( \frac{p}{2} + 4 = 10 \)
    Subtract 4 from both sides:
    \( \frac{p}{2} = 6 \)
    Multiply both sides by 2:
    \( p = 12 \)

  2. For the second equation:
    \( 2 = 10 - 6h \)
    Subtract 10 from both sides:
    \( -8 = -6h \)
    Divide by -6:
    \( h = \frac{4}{3} \)

  3. For the third equation:
    \( 3y - 16 = 20 \)
    Add 16 to both sides:
    \( 3y = 36 \)
    Divide by 3:
    \( y = 12 \)

Now we can list the solutions we found:

  • The solution for the first equation is \( p = 12 \).
  • The solution for the second equation is \( h = \frac{4}{3} \).
  • The solution for the third equation is \( y = 12 \).

The common value that is a solution to two of the equations is 12, as it is a solution to both the first and third equations.

Thus, the solution set is: \[ {12} \]
