50000=100p\left(1+\frac{10}{100}\right)^{2}-p_{10}\times 2
Multiply both sides of the equation by 100.
50000=100p\left(1+\frac{1}{10}\right)^{2}-p_{10}\times 2
Reduce the fraction \frac{10}{100} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 10.
50000=100p\times \left(\frac{11}{10}\right)^{2}-p_{10}\times 2
Add 1 and \frac{1}{10} to get \frac{11}{10}.
50000=100p\times \frac{121}{100}-p_{10}\times 2
Calculate \frac{11}{10} to the power of 2 and get \frac{121}{100}.
50000=121p-p_{10}\times 2
Multiply 100 and \frac{121}{100} to get 121.
121p-p_{10}\times 2=50000
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
121p=50000+p_{10}\times 2
Add p_{10}\times 2 to both sides.
121p=2p_{10}+50000
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{121p}{121}=\frac{2p_{10}+50000}{121}
Divide both sides by 121.
p=\frac{2p_{10}+50000}{121}
Dividing by 121 undoes the multiplication by 121.
50000=100p\left(1+\frac{10}{100}\right)^{2}-p_{10}\times 2
Multiply both sides of the equation by 100.
50000=100p\left(1+\frac{1}{10}\right)^{2}-p_{10}\times 2
Reduce the fraction \frac{10}{100} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 10.
50000=100p\times \left(\frac{11}{10}\right)^{2}-p_{10}\times 2
Add 1 and \frac{1}{10} to get \frac{11}{10}.
50000=100p\times \frac{121}{100}-p_{10}\times 2
Calculate \frac{11}{10} to the power of 2 and get \frac{121}{100}.
50000=121p-p_{10}\times 2
Multiply 100 and \frac{121}{100} to get 121.
121p-p_{10}\times 2=50000
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
-p_{10}\times 2=50000-121p
Subtract 121p from both sides.
-2p_{10}=50000-121p
Multiply -1 and 2 to get -2.
\frac{-2p_{10}}{-2}=\frac{50000-121p}{-2}
Divide both sides by -2.
p_{10}=\frac{50000-121p}{-2}
Dividing by -2 undoes the multiplication by -2.
p_{10}=\frac{121p}{2}-25000
Divide 50000-121p by -2.
