Eliminate the 5’s because they cancel each other out.
Add 3p + 2p to get 5p
5p= 65
Divide by 5
P = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve:

[tex]3p+5+2p−5=65[/tex]

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

[tex]3p+5+2p−5=65 \\ 3p+5+2p+−5=65 \\ (3p+2p)+(5+−5)=65(Combine Like Terms) \\ 5p=65 \\ 5p=65[/tex]

Step 2: Divide both sides by 5.

[tex] \frac{5p}{5} = \frac{65}{5} \\ p = 13[/tex]
