solve the equation

-9p-17=10

a.-3
b.16
c.18
d.-16
my answer;
d

How did you get that answer?

did you figure it out?

-9p-17=10

-9p = 27
p = -3

too bad you didn't bother to show your work.

–9p – 17 = 10

A. –3
B. 16
C. 18
D. –16 answer= -3

thats wrong

To solve the equation -9p - 17 = 10, you want to isolate the variable p. Here's how you can do it step by step:

1. Start by getting rid of the constant term on the left side of the equation. You can do this by adding 17 to both sides of the equation:
-9p - 17 + 17 = 10 + 17
-9p = 27

2. Next, divide both sides of the equation by -9 to get the value of p:
-9p / -9 = 27 / -9
p = -3

So the value of p that satisfies the equation -9p - 17 = 10 is p = -3.

Therefore, the correct answer is a. -3.
