Answer:


x = (k + c)/(4)

Explanation:

Given:


4x - c = k

Solve for:


x

Solution:

(1) Let's move all of components that do not contain
x (our target) to the right side (notice the change of sign of
c from negative to positive):


4x = k + c

(2) Let's divide both sides of equation by 4:


(4x)/(4) = (k + c)/(4)

(3) Now, we simplify the left side:


x = (k + c)/(4)

This is the solution.

Hope this helps!
