Given:

An expression is:


36-4c-3c=22

Required:

Simplify the expression for c.

Explanation:

The given expression is:


36-4c-3c=22

Apply the operation on the like terms to the left-hand side.


\begin{gathered} 36-(4c+3c)=22 \\ 36-7c=22 \end{gathered}

Add 7c on both sides.


\begin{gathered} 36-7c+7c=22+7c \\ 36=22+7c \end{gathered}
\begin{gathered} 36-22=22+7c-22 \\ 14=7c \\ c=(14)/(7) \\ c=2 \end{gathered}

Final Answer:

The value of c = 2.
