Answer:

The value of p is;

[tex]p=-4[/tex]

Explanation:

Given the equation:

[tex]6-8p=38[/tex]

to solve, let us subtract 6 from both sides;

[tex]\begin{gathered} 6-6-8p=38-6 \\ -8p=32 \end{gathered}[/tex]

then we can divide both sides by the coefficient of p.

divide both sides by -8;

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{-8p}{-8}=\frac{32}{-8} \\ p=-4 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, the value of p is;

[tex]p=-4[/tex]
