Question

Solve the equation -: 17 +6p = 9​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

• 17 + 6p = 9
• 6p = 9 - 17
• 6p = -8
• p = $\frac{-8}{6}$
• p = $\frac{-4}{3}$

Proof :-

• 17 + 6p
• 17 + 6($\frac{-4}{3}$)
• 17 + (2 × -4)
• 17 + (-8)
• 17 - 8
• 9

LHS = RHS

Answer 2

Answer:

=>The value of $p = \frac{-8}{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:-

$17 +6p = 9$

To find:- The value of the expression.

Here we will use the transposition method.

As we have,

=> $17 +6p = 9$

Now, subtract both sides by $17$ we get

=> $17 +6p-17 = 9-17$

Subtract the numbers, we get

=> $6p = -8$

Divide both sides by $6$, we get

=> $p= \frac{-8}{6}$

Hence, the required solution is $\frac{-8}{6} .$
