Distribute
5c + 4 = 2c - 10
Subtract 2c from each side
3c + 4 = -10
Subtract 4 from each side
3c = -14
Divide each side by 3
c = -4 2/3
The answer is #1

Your choice of answer must be consistent with the instructions.
The only answer with no exponent is the correct one:
1/3
__
The rules of exponents tell you ...
(a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)
3^(-4) × 3^3 = 3^(-4+3) = 3^-1
and
a^-b = 1/a^b
so
3^-1 = 1/3^1 = 1/3 . . . . written without an exponent
