Question

8c+6j=5p solve for c

Answer 1

If we want to get c by itself. Let's start by moving 6j. Since it's added to 8c, how can we get rid of 6j from the left side of the expression? Do you know what operation we might use?

Answer 2

idk!

Answer 3

Okay, since it's added, we want to subtract 6j from each side like so:
8c+6j=5p
-6j -6j
____________
What does that equal?

Answer 4

yes, subtract 6j from both sides, and divide both sides by 8.
