    The answer is a negative decimal

    Step-by-step explanation:

    9 - 4 (2p - 1) = 41

    Distribute

    9 - 8p + 4 = 41

    Combine like terms

    13 - 8p = 41

    Subtract 13 from each side

    13-13 - 8p = 41-13

    -8p = 28

    Divide each side by - 8

    -8p/-8 = 28/-8

    p = -3.5
