anonymous · Answer

If you don't mind me asking, where'd you get the negative 4 from? :)

anonymous · Answer

it's from moving the 4c in '4c-9' across the sign..
3c+2=4c-9
-4c     -4c
This is to get all variables on the same side of the equals sign

anonymous · Answer

to work it out...
3c+2=4c-9 is your original problem. You need to get variables and numbers each on their own side, so..
 3c+2=4c-9
-4c      -4c
to get -1c+2=-9. Then you would...
                -2   -2
to get -1c = -11
then divide both sides by -1 to get
c = 11
