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 -9c - c = -4c + 2y - 3 for c in terms of y.
| 2y - \(\frac{5}{6}\) | |
| 2\(\frac{1}{3}\)y - 1\(\frac{1}{3}\) | |
| -7y - 3 | |
| -\(\frac{3}{5}\)y + \(\frac{3}{5}\) |
