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 5c + 8c = 2c + 6x - 6 for c in terms of x.
| -3\(\frac{2}{3}\)x - 1\(\frac{1}{3}\) | |
| \(\frac{2}{17}\)x + \(\frac{2}{17}\) | |
| -\(\frac{2}{3}\)x - 2 | |
| 3x - 9 |
