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 - 7c = -9c - y - 5 for c in terms of y.
| \(\frac{2}{11}\)y - \(\frac{9}{11}\) | |
| 6y - 5 | |
| -1\(\frac{1}{6}\)y + \(\frac{5}{6}\) | |
| \(\frac{4}{5}\)y + 1\(\frac{1}{5}\) |
