Answer:

The third option is false, because when you plug in 4 for p, you get 14, and 14 is not equal to -26.

Hope this helps! :D

Answer: -26=2(3p-5) is false

Explanation:

The solution is 4

Substitute in 4 in place of the variables to prove whether its false or true

1/4(4)+17=18

18=18 true

5=4(4)-11

5=16-11

5=5 true

-26=2(3(4)-5)

-26=2(7)

-26
\\eq14

3(4+4)=24

3(8)=24

24=24 true

-26=2(3p-5) is false
