Don't know if this is right, but here's a shot at it:
5p +9
- p +8
________
4p +1
Does that look reasonable to you?? 5p -1p =4p, and 9-8=1

hi ya.....
(5p+9)-(p+8)=5p+9-p-8(Remove the Bracket)
=5p-p+9-8(i.e.,Arrange p terms and numbers together)
=4p+1
so the answer is 4p+1

gus is correct.
You subtract 5p-1p= 4p
9-8=1
therefore 4p+1 is the answer.

(5p+9) - (p +8) = ?
p = -8
Therefore:
[(5x-8) - (-8 +8)] =?
(-40) - (0) = -40
Your answer is -40.
