For the equation 10 p − 2 ( 3 p − 6 ) = 4 ( 3 p − 6 ) − 8 p , there is no solution.
The given equation is 10 p − 2 ( 3 p − 6 ) = 4 ( 3 p − 6 ) − 8 p .
Let us solve for p, apply distributive property:
10 p − 6 p + 12 = 12 p − 24 − 8 p
4 p + 12 = 4 p − 24
Add 24 from both sides and subtract 12 from both sides:
4 p − 4 p = − 24 − 12
0 = − 36
Hence, the equation does not have solution .

The equation 10 p − 2 ( 3 p − 6 ) = 4 ( 3 p − 6 ) − 8 p simplifies to an impossible statement of 12 = − 24 . This means there is no solution to the equation. Therefore, the equation does not yield any valid value for p .
