Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(p + 3) equal to 1.732050808 and -1.732050808.

Subproblem 1
p + 3 = 1.732050808

Simplifying
p + 3 = 1.732050808

Reorder the terms:
3 + p = 1.732050808

Solving
3 + p = 1.732050808

Solving for variable 'p'.

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

Add '-3' to each side of the equation.
3 + -3 + p = 1.732050808 + -3

Combine like terms: 3 + -3 = 0
0 + p = 1.732050808 + -3
p = 1.732050808 + -3

Combine like terms: 1.732050808 + -3 = -1.267949192
p = -1.267949192

Simplifying
p = -1.267949192

Subproblem 2
p + 3 = -1.732050808

Simplifying
p + 3 = -1.732050808

Reorder the terms:
3 + p = -1.732050808

Solving
3 + p = -1.732050808

Solving for variable 'p'.

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

Add '-3' to each side of the equation.
3 + -3 + p = -1.732050808 + -3

Combine like terms: 3 + -3 = 0
0 + p = -1.732050808 + -3
p = -1.732050808 + -3

Combine like terms: -1.732050808 + -3 = -4.732050808
p = -4.732050808

Simplifying
p = -4.732050808

Solution
The solution to the problem is based on the solutions
from the subproblems.
p = {-1.267949192, -4.732050808}
