Answer:
p = all real numbers
Step-by-step explanation:
First distribute the numbers to the expressions inside the parenthesis
-11 + 10(p + 1) = -16 + 5(2p + 3)
-11 + 10p + 10 = -16 + 10p + 15
Then, add up the like terms
10p - 1 = 10p - 1
Add one to both sides
10p - 1 = 10p - 1
+ 1 + 1
10p = 10p
Divide both sides by 10
10p/10 = 10p/10
p = p
This means that no matter what you plug in for p, it will always be true.
