Solution

The correct option is C $p = \frac{- 4}{3}$
Given, $17 + 6 p = 9$
$\Rightarrow 17 - 17 + 6 p = 9 - 17$ ...[Subtracting 17 on both sides]
$\Rightarrow 6 p = - 8 \Rightarrow 3 p = - 4$ ...[On dividing both sides by 2]
$\Rightarrow \frac{3 p}{3} = \frac{- 4}{3}$ ...[Dividing both sides by 3]
$\Rightarrow p = \frac{- 4}{3}$
