Question

What is 4c + 8c = -55 + 3c

Answer 1

To solve this, you need to isolate/get the variable "c" by itself in the equation:

4c + 8c = -55 + 3c    You can first combine like terms (4c and 8c)

12c = -55 + 3c         Subtract 3c on both sides

9c = -55       Divide 9 on both sides

$c=-\frac{55}{9}$
