Answer:
p < 16
Step-by-step explanation:
Dividing the inequality by a negative number will reverse the comparison.
-3p > -48
(-3p)/(-3) < (-48)/(-3) . . . . divide both sides by the coefficient of p
p < 16
_____
Alternate solution
Add 3p+48 to both sides.
-3p +(3p +48) > -48 +(3p +48)
48 > 3p
Divide both sides by 3; no reversal is necessary.
16 > p . . . . . same answer as above, without the comparison reversal
