Answer:


  • \boxed{\sf{p=-(3)/(7)=-0.42 }}

Explanation:

Isolate the term of p from one side of the equation.

-2=6/7p

First, multiply by 7p from both sides.

-2*7p=6/7p*7p

Solve.

-14p=6

Then, you divide by -14 from both sides,

-14p/-14=6/-14

Solve.

p=-3/7

Dividing is another option.

-3/7=-0.42

  • Therefore, the correct answer is p=-3/7=-0.42.

I hope this helps you! Let me know if my answer is wrong or not.
