Answer:

C= -4

Explanation:

4+17c=11c-20 (First want to get C on the same side of the equation!)

-4 -4

17c=11c-24

-11c -11c

6c= -24 (Now we want to isolate the variable)

÷6 ÷6

c = -4

c=-4
subtract 4 from both sides, then subtract 11c from both sides, divide both sides by 6 then you get c =-4
