P-5 = 19
answer step by step & explain

Step-by-step explanation:

Very simple.

p - 5 = 19

So to take out the -5 on that side, you must also do the same thing to the other side. So adding 5 in one side of the equal sign would mean you have to do the same thing on the other side of the equal sign.

SO:

p-5 +5 = 19+5

p = 24
