Answer:
A. It hints that the transmitter will sound off only if George thinks unacceptable thoughts.
He could not imagine the possible danger he could face. This means that he did not prepare properly.
Original equation: 5c-4-2c+1=8c+2
The first thing you want to do is combine like terms:
3c-3=8c+2
Then. get the variable on its own side by subtracting the 3c from the left and subtracting the 2 from the right:
-5=5c
Divide both sides by 5 to get c by itself:
-1=c
I think the answer would be c
