Final Answer: [tex]p = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Steps/Reasons/Explanation:
Question: Solve the equation [tex]4(2p + 3) = 16[/tex].
Step 1: Divide both sides by [tex]4[/tex].
[tex]2p + 3 = \frac{16}{4}[/tex]
Step 2: Simplify [tex]\frac{16}{4}[/tex] to [tex]4[/tex].
[tex]2p + 3 = 4[/tex]
Step 3: Subtract [tex]3[/tex] from both sides.
[tex]2p = 4 - 3[/tex]
Step 4: Simplify [tex]4 - 3[/tex] to [tex]1[/tex].
[tex]2p = 1[/tex]
Step 5: Divide both sides by [tex]2[/tex].
[tex]p = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
