Question

Solve the equation. −5 = c7

Answer 1

`c = - \frac { 5 } { 7 }`

Explanation:

We are given the following equation and we are to solve it for
`c`:

`- 5 = c7`

Switching the sides of the equation we get:

`c * 7 = -5`

Then dividing both sides of the equation by 7 to get:

`\frac { c * 7 } { 7 } = \frac { - 5 } { 7 }`

`c = - \frac { 5 } { 7 }`
