Question

Solve for the variable: -2c = 10

Answer 1

-2c=10
Dividing both sides by -2
c=
`(10)/(-2)`
c=-5

Answer 2

Hey there,

Lets solve this together, my friend

Divide both sides by −2


`c=10/-2`

Simplify 10 /−2 to −10 / 2


`c = -10 / 2`

Simplify 10 / 2 to 5


`c=-5`

-------- Check your work


`-2c=10`

Let c=−5


`-2*-5=10`

Simplify 2×−5 to −10


`10=10`

Therefore, the answer is correct!
