Question

What is c in 3-8c=35?

Answer 1

Hey there.. 
Let's solve this problem together

question -- > 3 - 8c = 35
So first we need the c term on one side and all other terms on the other. In this question we have just 1 c term so we will keep it on the same side were it is right now. 
Also, to do that we need to subtract 3 from both sides.
-3 + 3 - 8c = 35 - 3
-8c = 32

Step 2 --> dividing both sides by -8 to get the value of c.
$\frac{-8c}{-8} = \frac{32}{-8}$
c = -4 Answer

Therefore, value of c = -4

Hope this helped you..  :-)

Answer 2

3-8=-5
add 5 to both sides 
-5+5=0
35+5=40
so c=40
