Solve (16=2*(4-1)^2-p/2)

$$( 16 = 2 \cdot ( 4 - 1 ) ^ { 2 } - \frac { p } { 2 } )$$

Solve for p

$$p=4$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Multiply both sides of the equation by 2.

$$32=4\left(4-1\right)^{2}-p$$

Subtract 1 from 4 to get 3.

$$32=4\times 3^{2}-p$$

Calculate 3 to the power of 2 and get 9.

$$32=4\times 9-p$$

Multiply 4 and 9 to get 36.

$$32=36-p$$

Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.

$$36-p=32$$

Subtract 36 from both sides.

$$-p=32-36$$

Subtract 36 from 32 to get -4.

$$-p=-4$$

Multiply both sides by -1.

$$p=4$$
