Answer:
p = 33
Step-by-step explanation:
Start by converting each decimal into a fraction
[tex]3.8 =\frac{19}{5}[/tex]and [tex]7.2 = \frac{36}{5}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{19}{5} = \frac{x}{3} - \frac{36}{5}[/tex] multiply both sides by 15
[tex]57 =5x-108[/tex] add 108 to 57
[tex]165 = 5x[/tex] divide by 5
[tex]x =33[/tex]
