Question

Solve for p: -9 + p < 15 A. p > 24 B. -p > 6 C. p < 24 D. -p < -6

Answer 1

Answer:

C.  In the given expression -9 + p < 15 , the value of p <  24.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given expression is :

-9 + p < 15

Now, solving for the value of p.

If equals are added to both sides of inequality, the inequality remains unchanged.

Now, -9 + p < 15

⇒  -9 + p  + 9 < 15  + 9                                  (adding +9 on both sides)

or,  p <  24

Hence, in the given expression -9 + p < 15  the value of  p <  24.
