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 -7c + c = -5c + 5x - 2 for c in terms of x.
| 1\(\frac{5}{8}\)x - \(\frac{3}{8}\) | |
| \(\frac{1}{2}\)x - \(\frac{1}{2}\) | |
| -2x + 1 | |
| 1\(\frac{2}{3}\)x - 1\(\frac{2}{3}\) |
