5(p-4)=2

this problem is also hard for me: '(

p = 36/5, or p = 7  1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Next time, please include the instructions.

I think the goal is to solve this equation for p.

Let me write this equation as

(5/8)(p - 4) = 2

We can get rid of the fractional coefficient (5/8) by multiplying both sides of this equation by (8/5).  This gives us:

p - 4 = (8/5)(2).

Let's eliminate fractions again.  To do this, multiply all 3 terms by 5.  We'll then have:

5p - 20 = 16

Solve for p.  To do this, add 20 to both sides:

5p = 36

so that     p = 36/5, or p = 7  1/5

the central idea is that:

individuals should refuse to cooperate with institutions they believe unjust.

thoreau felt  that governments were more often agents of corruption than justice, even democracies, and that just because the majority feels a certain way does not make it just or correct in absolute terms. he uses the fact that slavery exists in our democracy to support this idea.

he goes on to say that, as a result, people should live true to their own internal laws regarding right and wrong, as a product of reflection and a moral life, rather than following every law that society imposes. 

step-by-step explanation:

10.416 meters per second

step-by-step explanation:

distance=1 00 meters

time= 9.6 seconds in decimal form or 9 3/5 as a mixed number

average speed= 100/9.6

=10.416 meters per second or 10 52/125 as a mixed number.
