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 + c = c + x - 4 for c in terms of x.
| -4x - 5 | |
| \(\frac{2}{3}\)x - \(\frac{1}{12}\) | |
| x + \(\frac{2}{3}\) | |
| -\(\frac{1}{2}\)x + 1\(\frac{1}{4}\) |
