Answer:

d) 6

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]3=2p-9[/tex]

[tex]2p-9=3[/tex] (Symmetric Property of Equality)

[tex]2p-9+9=3+9[/tex] (Add [tex]9[/tex] to both sides of the equation to isolate [tex]p[/tex])

[tex]2p=12[/tex] (Simplify)

[tex]\frac{2p}{2}=\frac{12}{2}[/tex] (Divide both sides of the equation by [tex]2[/tex] to get rid of [tex]p[/tex]'s coefficient)

[tex]p=6[/tex] (Simplify)

Hope this helps!
