Answer 1

p² = 80

p = ±√80

p = ±√((16)(5))

p = ±4√5

Answer 2

If you are attempting to solve for p, then you must first isolate that variable.  In this case, since p2=80, you will isolate p by dividing both sides of the equation by 2.  Performing this calculation will both isolate your variable, p, and give you your final answer.

 

Left side of equation:  p2 ÷ 2 = p

Right side of equation:  80 ÷ 2 = _____

 

Perform the final calculation above to fill in the blank and you will have your final answer.
