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 8c + 6c = -6c - 7y - 3 for c in terms of y.
| -\(\frac{1}{2}\)y - \(\frac{1}{2}\) | |
| -\(\frac{13}{14}\)y - \(\frac{3}{14}\) | |
| -2\(\frac{1}{2}\)y + 3\(\frac{1}{2}\) | |
| 7y - 6 |
