First, expand the brackets:

-6p*7=6p-9+40-16p

Then simplify

-42p=-10p+31

Plus 10p to each side to get the 31 on its own

-32p=31

Divide both sides by -32 to get p by its own.

p=31/32

-6p + 7= 3(2p - 3) -4(-10 + 4p)
-6p+7=6p-9+40-16p
now put all the numbers on one side and the numbers with P on other side
-6p-6p+16p=-7-9+40
4p=+24
p=24/4
p=6
