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 -7c + 5c = -8c - 4x + 2 for c in terms of x.
| -9x + 2 | |
| \(\frac{1}{3}\)x - \(\frac{2}{9}\) | |
| x - 1\(\frac{1}{6}\) | |
| \(\frac{1}{2}\)x - 1 |
