Consider the equation 3p – 7 + p = 13. what is the resulting equation after the first step in the solution?

First p=23 and because if u do the math right that is what u should get

The first step would be to combine like terms which is 3p and p so your equation would look like:

4p - 7 = 13

In the second step you would add 7 to both sides which would give you:

4p = 20

The third and last step would be to divide both sides with 4 which would give you your

p = 5

the first one, all those points on the line just make a strait line.

b.my answer is b.
