Answer 1

Answer:  The required solution is c = 2.43.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to solve the following linear equation :

$5c-9=8-2c~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)$

To solve the given equation, we are to find the value of unknown variable c.

The solution of equation (i) is as follows :

$5c-9=8-2c\\\\\Rightarrow 5c+2c=8+9\\\\\Rightarrow 7c=17\\\\\Rightarrow c=\dfrac{17}{7}\\\\\Rightarrow c=2.43.$

Thus, the required solution is c = 2.43.

Answer 2

C = 17/7 should be the answer
