solve (a) 5+p=14 (b) 8-s=13 (c) v-12=4?

Seriously, do your own homework. These questions should be against the guidelines, I think. It's cheating.

it's very easy.

a. p=9
b. s=-5
c. v=16

try to use your brain dude.

this is basic algebra. you should not be demanding with your questions.

Problem a:
5 + p = 14
p = 9

Problem b:
8 - s = 13
s = - 5

Problem c:
v - 12 = 4
v = 16

If you can use the computer, you can use its calculator. Do it. If you can't find the shortcut, try Start>Run and type Calc, click Run (Windows).
But really if you can come so far as to ask it on yahoo answers, then you should know the results for 14-5, 13+8 and 4+12. Are you really a first grader?

a) p = 9

b) s = 5

c) v = 16

a)
5 + p = 14
p = 14 - 5
p = 9

b)
8 - s = 13
s = 8 - 13
s = -5

c)
v - 12 = 4
v = 4 + 12
v = 16

9, 14 and 7 going across.

Thank me later.

For a)
--solve for p.
--You must make p by itself.
-----You must subtract 5 both sides of the equation so that p can be by itself.


so...

5 + p = 14
-5 + p = 14 -5
0 + p = 9
p = 9


For b)
---Solve for s.
---You must make s by itself
----Subtract 8 both sides of the equation so that s is by itself
----* change signs so that s can be positive.


8 - s = 13
-8 - s = 13-8
0 -s = 5
-s = 5
s = -5

now do c by yourself. GOod luckk
