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