Question

Figure out the two- step equation please i NEED HELLLP!
-5c - 15 = -35

Answer 1

c=4

Explanation:

To solve, we need to get the variable, c by itself.

First, we need to move all the numbers to the same side.

-5c -15 = -35

Add 15 to both sides, since 15 is being subtracted from -5c

-5c-15+15= -35+15

-5c=-20

-5 and c are being multiplied. Divide both sides by -5, since division is the opposite of multiplication

-5c/-5= -20/-5

c= 4

Answer 2

c=4

Explanation:

-5c - 15 = -35

Add 15 to each side

-5c - 15+15 = -35+15

-5c = -20

Divide each side by -5

-5c/-5 = -20/-5

c = 4
