Question

Consider the equation, where p is a real number coefficient.

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 7/-p

Step-by-step explanation:

-(px - 2) = 9

-px + 2 = 9

-px = 7

x = $-\frac{7}{p}$

Answer 2

Answer:

x = -7/p

Step-by-step explanation:

We have:

-(px - 2) = 9

Divide both sides by -1:

px - 2 = -9

Add 2 to both sides:

px = -7

Divide by p:

x = -7/p

p is a real number coefficient, which means it can be any kind of fraction, decimal, or integer as long as it doesn't contain any imaginary part, i.

So, we have x = -7/p.
