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 -3c + 5c = 4c + 5x - 2 for c in terms of x.
| -\(\frac{3}{4}\)x - \(\frac{5}{16}\) | |
| x + \(\frac{2}{7}\) | |
| \(\frac{1}{2}\)x + \(\frac{3}{16}\) | |
| -7x - 3 |
