I need to know how to answer this question please help

Step-by-step explanation:

The idea is to solve for "p" in the equation. Since p appears in two separate terms of he equation, first move terms from one side to the other of the equal sign, so you group all the terms with the variable "p" on one side, and all the rest of the terms on the other side:

q - 2 p = p + 4

add "2 p" on both sides of the equal sign, so you remove the term "- 2 p" on the left, and its opposite appears on the right):

q = p + 2 p + 4

now combine the like terms p and 2 p:

q = 3 p + 4

Now subtract 4 from both sides to isolate the term with the variable "p":

q - 4 = 3 p

Now divide both side by "3" to cancel out the multiplicative factor "3" tht appears by the variable "p"
