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 2c + c = 5c + 8z - 5 for c in terms of z.
| -\(\frac{4}{7}\)z - \(\frac{3}{7}\) | |
| z + \(\frac{3}{5}\) | |
| -2\(\frac{1}{3}\)z + 1\(\frac{2}{3}\) | |
| -\(\frac{1}{2}\)z + 2 |
