Question

What is the first step to solving this equation? -5c + 6 = -4

Answer 1

Explanation:

Hey, there!!

The given equation is : -5c + 6 = -4

The first step olis to take (+6) in right side,

`- 5c = - 4 - 6`

now, another step is add ( -4 and -6)

`- 5c = - 10`

Now, divide -10 by -5.

`c = ( - 10)/( - 5)`

Therefore, c= 2.

Hope it helps..

Answer 2

subtract 6 from both sides.

-5c = -10

then divide both sides by -5 (negative divided by a negative is a positive)

c = 2
