Question

solve for c
-\frac{c}{2}+43=50

Answer 1

@AZ

Answer 2

\( - \dfrac{c}{2} + 43 = 50\)

We want to get 'c' all by itself

We have + 43 on the left side. So if we're adding 43 on the left side, then to move it to the right side, we have to do the opposite of addition on both sides

So we would _____ 43 on both sides

What is it? Subtraction? Multiplication? Division?

What is the opposite of addition

Answer 3

Then after that, simplify the two numbers on the right side of the equal sign

and you'll be left with \( - \dfrac{c}{2}\) on both sides

To get c all by itself, you have to move that -2 to the other side

Since we're dividing c by -2, we have to do the opposite of that to the -2 on both sides
