Answer:
The value of p is 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equation,
[tex](8^9)^p=8^{18}[/tex]
[tex]8^{9\times p}=8^{18}[/tex] ( [tex]\because (a^m)^n=a^{mn}[/tex] )
[tex]8^{9p}=8^{18}[/tex]
[tex]9p = 18[/tex] ( [tex]\because a^m =a^n\implies m = n[/tex] )
Divide both sides by 9,
[tex]p=2[/tex]
Hence, the value of p is 2.
