1) Add 9 to both sides. On the left side of the equal sign it will cancel out. on the right side of the equal sign because it is now a different sign equation you subtract -193 from 9 which equals -184
2) now you are left with to= -184
to get the variable by itself you need to divide both sides by 4. on the left side of the equal sign you have p by itself now , on the right you divide -184 by 4 and your answer comes out to be p= -46
3) p= -46 is your final answer!
