2=p(x-q)

Solution for 2=p(x-q) equation:

Simplifying
2 = p(x + -1q)

Reorder the terms:
2 = p(-1q + x)
2 = (-1q * p + x * p)
2 = (-1pq + px)

Solving
2 = -1pq + px

Solving for variable 'p'.

Move all terms containing p to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add 'pq' to each side of the equation.
2 + pq = -1pq + pq + px

Combine like terms: -1pq + pq = 0
2 + pq = 0 + px
2 + pq = px

Add '-1px' to each side of the equation.
2 + pq + -1px = px + -1px

Combine like terms: px + -1px = 0
2 + pq + -1px = 0

Add '-2' to each side of the equation.
2 + pq + -2 + -1px = 0 + -2

Reorder the terms:
2 + -2 + pq + -1px = 0 + -2

Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0
0 + pq + -1px = 0 + -2
pq + -1px = 0 + -2

Combine like terms: 0 + -2 = -2
pq + -1px = -2

Reorder the terms:
2 + pq + -1px = -2 + 2

Combine like terms: -2 + 2 = 0
2 + pq + -1px = 0
