You're welcome Gwen. :)
By the way, did you mean to put < instead of > in your answer choices?
No its > for the question
To solve the inequality p + 12 < 9, we need to isolate the variable p.
1. Start by subtracting 12 from both sides of the inequality:
p + 12 - 12 < 9 - 12
p < -3
2. The solution is p < -3, which means that p is less than -3.
Therefore, the correct answer is D. p > -3.
