    its been 2o+ years since algebra. Can someone walk me through this basic algebra problem?

    10p+9-11-p=-2(2p+4)-3(2p-2)

    Thanks, Kevin

    10P+9-11-P=-2(2P+4)-3(2P-2)
    10P+9-11-P=-4P-8-6P+6
    10P-P+4P+6P=-9+11-8+6
    19P=0
    P=0

    First, clear the parenthesis:
    10p+9-11-1p=-4p-8-6p+6
    Combine like items:
    9p-2=-10p-2
    Move the variables to one side:
    19p-2=-2
    Move constants to the other side:
    19p=0
    Divide by 19 to isolate p:
    p=0/19
    p=0

    Edit: Dammit Chris! :shakesfist:
