When solving an equation with two variables, replace the variables with the values given and then solve the now variable-free equation. (Remember order of operations, PEMDAS, Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication/Division, Addition/Subtraction.)
Solve -8c - 3c = 9c + 8z + 1 for c in terms of z.
| -\(\frac{11}{17}\)z - \(\frac{1}{17}\) | |
| 1\(\frac{1}{3}\)z - \(\frac{4}{9}\) | |
| z - \(\frac{3}{13}\) | |
| \(\frac{1}{7}\)z + 1\(\frac{1}{7}\) |
