Solution

Sure, let's solve the equation step by step:

  1. The given equation is 7p - q = 2p + 6.

  2. To express p in terms of q, we need to isolate p.

  3. First, let's get all terms involving p on one side of the equation and the rest on the other side. We can do this by subtracting 2p from both sides, which gives us 7p - 2p = q + 6.

  4. Simplifying that gives us 5p = q + 6.

  5. Finally, to solve for p, we divide both sides of the equation by 5, which gives us p = (q + 6) / 5.

So, p is expressed in terms of q as p = (q + 6) / 5.
