The correct Answer is:
To solve the equation \(\frac{4-3x}{5} + \frac{7-x}{3} + 4\frac{1}{3} = 0\), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Convert Mixed Number to Improper Fraction First, we convert \(4\frac{1}{3}\) into an improper fraction: \[ 4\frac{1}{3} = \frac{4 \times 3 + 1}{3} = \frac{12 + 1}{3} = \frac{13}{3} \] So, the equation becomes: \[ \frac{4-3x}{5} + \frac{7-x}{3} + \frac{13}{3} = 0 \] ### Step 2: Combine the Fractions Next, we need to find a common denominator for the fractions. The least common multiple (LCM) of 5 and 3 is 15. We rewrite each term with a denominator of 15: \[ \frac{4-3x}{5} = \frac{3(4-3x)}{15} = \frac{12 - 9x}{15} \] \[ \frac{7-x}{3} = \frac{5(7-x)}{15} = \frac{35 - 5x}{15} \] \[ \frac{13}{3} = \frac{5 \times 13}{15} = \frac{65}{15} \] Now, substituting these back into the equation gives: \[ \frac{12 - 9x + 35 - 5x + 65}{15} = 0 \] ### Step 3: Combine the Numerators Combine the numerators: \[ 12 - 9x + 35 - 5x + 65 = 0 \] Combine like terms: \[ (12 + 35 + 65) + (-9x - 5x) = 0 \] \[ 112 - 14x = 0 \] ### Step 4: Solve for \(x\) Now, we can solve for \(x\): \[ -14x = -112 \] \[ x = \frac{-112}{-14} = 8 \] ### Step 5: Substitute \(x\) into the Second Equation Now that we have \(x = 8\), we substitute this value into the second equation \(3p - 2x + 1 = 0\): \[ 3p - 2(8) + 1 = 0 \] \[ 3p - 16 + 1 = 0 \] \[ 3p - 15 = 0 \] ### Step 6: Solve for \(p\) Now, solve for \(p\): \[ 3p = 15 \] \[ p = \frac{15}{3} = 5 \] ### Final Answer Thus, the value of \(p\) is \(5\). ---
