Hello! I am taking the Equations and Inequalities Unit Test, and I'm having a lot oof truble, I am dyslexic and I'm aalready failing math, if someone could please explain the first question to me I'm sure I wil figure the rest out!

-9p-17=10
A.-3
B.16
C.18
D.-16
Please help thank you!!
*Ms.Sue if you wouldn't mind helping me*

-9p-17=10

add 17 to both sides, and you have
-9p = 27
now divide both sides by -9 to get
p = -3

Thank you SM Steve!!! Ill come back with my test results!!!!!!

I got a 85!! thank you steve!!!!!!!!!!

wat were other answers

I think they are....I need help! I have to finish it in 2 hours!!

ERICA TELL THE ANSWERS PLEASEEEE

Is that the right answers?

Btw everyone, the test answers are shuffled

Hello! I'm here to help you with the first question. Let's break it down step by step.

The equation is: -9p - 17 = 10

To find the value of p, we need to isolate it on one side of the equation. Here's how we can solve it:

Step 1: Begin by moving the constant term (-17) to the other side of the equation. To do this, we can add 17 to both sides of the equation:

-9p - 17 + 17 = 10 + 17
-9p = 27

Step 2: Now, we want to get rid of the coefficient (-9) in front of the variable p. To do this, we can divide both sides of the equation by -9:

-9p / -9 = 27 / -9
p = -3

So, the value of p in the given equation is -3.

Therefore, the correct answer to the first question is A.-3.

I hope this explanation helps you understand how to solve this type of equation. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask!
