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 5c - 2c = -7c - 4y - 8 for c in terms of y.
| 4y + 9 | |
| \(\frac{6}{7}\)y - \(\frac{1}{14}\) | |
| 2y + 4 | |
| -\(\frac{1}{6}\)y - \(\frac{2}{3}\) |
