@i..am..legend
OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):
is that
\[\frac{-5}{8c} = 20\]?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):
get the c onto the other side, by multiplying both sides of the equation by c
OpenStudy (anonymous):
So -5 * 8?
(-40)

wait a minute,
is it real question
\[\frac{-5}{8}c = 20\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yes sorry
OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):
Well they are quite different equations.
\[\frac{-5}{8}c = 20\]
divide both sides of this equation by 5
OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):
can you do this @5EasyAnswers ?

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):
\[\frac{-5}{8}c/5 = 20/5\\\frac{-\cancel5}{8}c\cancel{/5} = 20/5\]
OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):
-c/8 =20/5
can you divide the right hand side ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
20/5 = 4
OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):
so you have
-c/8 = 4
now multiply both sides of the equation by 8
OpenStudy (anonymous):
8 * 4 = 32
