Answer:


c=-10.4


c=-(52)/(5)

Explanation:

Hello! You did not provide given values, but we can go through this together without any given choices.

Start with:


5c-5=-50-7

Combine like terms:


5c-5=-57

Add
5 to both sides of the equation:


5c=-52

Divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of
c, which is
5:


c=-10.4

- or -


c=-(52)/(5)
