Answered by Ms. Sue
9p+3=4(p-8)

First do the arithmetic for the part in parentheses.

4(p-8) = 4p - 32

Your problem is now:
9p + 3 = 4p - 32
_____________________

Subtract 4p from each side of the equation.
5p + 3 = -32
________________________________

Subtract 3 from both sides.
5p = -29

Divide both sides of the equation by 5. What answer do you get?
