Simplifying
p(2p + -3) = 12 + -1p

Reorder the terms:
p(-3 + 2p) = 12 + -1p
(-3 * p + 2p * p) = 12 + -1p
(-3p + 2p2) = 12 + -1p

Solving
-3p + 2p2 = 12 + -1p

Solving for variable 'p'.

Reorder the terms:
-12 + -3p + p + 2p2 = 12 + -1p + -12 + p

Combine like terms: -3p + p = -2p
-12 + -2p + 2p2 = 12 + -1p + -12 + p

Reorder the terms:
-12 + -2p + 2p2 = 12 + -12 + -1p + p

Combine like terms: 12 + -12 = 0
-12 + -2p + 2p2 = 0 + -1p + p
-12 + -2p + 2p2 = -1p + p

Combine like terms: -1p + p = 0
-12 + -2p + 2p2 = 0

Factor out the Greatest Common Factor (GCF), '2'.

Ignore the factor 2.

Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(-2 + -1p)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying -2 + -1p = 0 Solving -2 + -1p = 0 Move all terms containing p to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '2' to each side of the equation. -2 + 2 + -1p = 0 + 2 Combine like terms: -2 + 2 = 0 0 + -1p = 0 + 2 -1p = 0 + 2 Combine like terms: 0 + 2 = 2 -1p = 2 Divide each side by '-1'. p = -2 Simplifying p = -2

Subproblem 2

Set the factor '(3 + -1p)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 3 + -1p = 0 Solving 3 + -1p = 0 Move all terms containing p to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-3' to each side of the equation. 3 + -3 + -1p = 0 + -3 Combine like terms: 3 + -3 = 0 0 + -1p = 0 + -3 -1p = 0 + -3 Combine like terms: 0 + -3 = -3 -1p = -3 Divide each side by '-1'. p = 3 Simplifying p = 3

Solution

p = {-2, 3}
