To find the number of people in line not wearing a hat, you can subtract the number of people wearing a hat from the total number of people in line.
Given that there are \( p \) people in line and 17 of them are wearing a hat, the expression for the number of people not wearing a hat is:
\[
p - 17
\]
So, the correct expression is \( p - 17 \).
