- 2p + 8 = 6 - (7p + 7)

p=1

Step-by-step explanation:

first you need to get rid of the parenthesis

-2p+8=6-7p+7

then combine everything you can on their respective sides

-2p+8=13-7p

then get the variable on one side and for this, it can be done 2 different ways but both ways get the same answer

-2p+8=13-7p

+7p         +7p

5p+8=13

or

-2p+8=13-7p

+2p         +2p

8=13-5p

then, depending on which way you decide to solve it, you would then solve for x like you would in any regualar equation

first way shown above:

5p+8=13

    -8  -8

5p=5

divide them both by 5 and p=1

or the other way shown above

8=13-5p

-13  -13

-5=-5p

divide both sides by -5 and then p=1

answer: a.   one is a factor of every whole number since every number is divisible by itself.

the answer is; biodiversity resulting from few ancestors

adaptive radiation occurs when a population is subjected to a large natural environment with spatial ecological variations. the parts of the population in the different ecologies begin to adapt to their local environments. due to non-random mating across the large populations, this causes the different populations from the large population to speciate within their local environments. they, therefore, diverge to different species sharing a common ancestor.
