Answer:

c =2

Explanation:

2(6c+2)+3c=2 (19 -c)

1. Distribute

2(6c +2 ) + 3c = 2 ( 19 - C )

12c + 4 +3c = 2 (19 - C )

2. Combine like terms

12c + 4 + 3c = 2 ( 19 - c )

15c + 4 = 2 (19 - c )

3. Rearrange terms

15c + 4 = 2( 19 - C )

15c + 4 = 2 ( -c + 19 )

4. Distribute

15c + 4 = 2 ( -c + 19 )

15c + 4 = -2c + 38

5. Subtract 4 from both sides of the equation

15c + 4 = -2c + 38

15c + 4 -4 = -2c + 38 -4

6. Simplify

Subtract the numbers

Subtract the numbers

15c = -2c +34

7. Add 2c to both sides of the equation

15c = -2 +32

15c +2c = -2c + 34 + 2c

8. Simplify

Combine like terms

Combine like terms

17c = 34

9.Divide both sides of the equation by the same term

17c = 34

17c/17 = 34/17

10. Simplify

Cancel terms that are in both the numerator and denominator

Divide the numbers

c = 2
