To get x by itself, we first isolate the x term

by adding c to both sides to get 5x = k + c.

Next we divide both sides by 5 and we

have
x= (k + c)/(5) which is our final answer.

Answer:

x = ( k+c)/5

Explanation:

5x - c = k

Add c to each side

5x -c+c = k+c

5x = k+c

Divide by 5

5x/5= ( k+c)/5

x = ( k+c)/5
