To determine if the equation is true, false, or open, we need to solve it for p.

Starting with the given equation:
9p + 8 = 10p + 7.

First, we can gather like terms by subtracting 9p from both sides:
8 = p + 7.

Next, we can subtract 7 from both sides to isolate p:
1 = p.

Therefore, the equation is true since p equals 1.
