complete the process of solving the equation. fill in the missing term and select the missing description. simplify any fractions. 5p + 4 = 9 5p = 5 p = 1 divide both sides by 5

Explanation:

Step1: Subtract 4 from both sides

$5p + 4-4=9 - 4$
$5p=5$

Step2: Divide both sides by 5

$\frac{5p}{5}=\frac{5}{5}$
$p = 1$

Answer:

The missing description is "Subtract 4 from both sides" and the value of $p$ is $1$.
