Q. 8p23=3+3p8\sqrt{p}-2\sqrt{3}=\sqrt{3}+3\sqrt{p}\newlineWhat value of pp is the solution to the given equation?\newlineChoose 11 answer:\newline(A) (33)/(5)(3\sqrt{3})/(5)\newline(B) (9)/(5)(9)/(5)\newline(C) (9)/(25)(9)/(25)\newline(D) (27)/(25)(27)/(25)
  1. Isolate terms involving p: First, let's isolate the terms involving p p on one side and the constants on the other side of the equation. We start by moving all terms involving p \sqrt{p} to the left and all constant terms to the right:\newline8p3p=3+23 8\sqrt{p} - 3\sqrt{p} = \sqrt{3} + 2\sqrt{3}
  2. Simplify both sides: Simplify both sides:\newline5p=33 5\sqrt{p} = 3\sqrt{3} \newlineNow, to eliminate the square root, square both sides of the equation:\newline(5p)2=(33)2 (5\sqrt{p})^2 = (3\sqrt{3})^2
  3. Eliminate square root: Perform the squaring:\newline25p=27 25p = 27 \newlineNext, solve for p p by dividing both sides by 2525:\newlinep=2725 p = \frac{27}{25}
