Solve the equation .

Hence, the value of p is:
-1
We are asked to solve the given linear equation which is in terms of variable 'p' as:
[tex]-12+18=p+7[/tex]
We will firstly solve the left hand side term.
i.e. we have:
[tex]6=p+7[/tex]
Now on subtracting both side by 7 we have:
[tex]6-7=p+7-7\\\\\\-1=p[/tex]
Hence, the solution of the linear equation is:
p= -1
