-c+2=5 [isolate or solve for the unknown variable (c)]
\n" ); document.write( "-c+2-2=5-2
\n" ); document.write( "-c=3
\n" ); document.write( "-c/-1=3/-1
\n" ); document.write( "c=-3
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Check by plugging (c=-3) back into the original equation and solve:
\n" ); document.write( "-c+2=5
\n" ); document.write( "-(-3)+2=5
\n" ); document.write( "3+2=5
\n" ); document.write( "5=5 [checks out] \n" ); document.write( "
