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 + 3c = -8c - 4x - 5 for c in terms of x.
| -\(\frac{7}{13}\)x - \(\frac{5}{13}\) | |
| -\(\frac{5}{6}\)x - 1\(\frac{1}{3}\) | |
| -\(\frac{1}{3}\)x + 2\(\frac{1}{3}\) | |
| -\(\frac{1}{2}\)x - \(\frac{7}{8}\) |
