\huge\text{Hey there!}


\large\text{SOLVING FOR THE C-VALUE}\downarrow


\mathsf{4c - 5 = 2c - 9}


\large\text{SUBTRACT 2c to BOTH SIDES}


\mathsf{4c - 5 - \bold{2c} = 2c - 9 - \bf 2c}


\large\text{SIMPLIFY IT!}


\mathsf{ 2c - 5= -9}


\large\text{ADD 5 to BOTH SIDES}


\mathsf{ 2c - 5 + \bold{5} = -9 + \bf 5}


\large\text{SIMPLIFY IT!}


\mathsf{2c = -4}


\large\text{DIVIDE 2 to BOTH SIDES}


\mathsf{(2c)/(\bf 2) = (-4)/(\bf 2)}


\large\text{SIMPLIFY IT!}


\mathsf{c = -2}


\huge\textbf{Therefore, your answer is: \boxed{\mathsf{c = -2}}}\huge\checkmark
