Question 300433
Get all "c" terms on left side, everything else on the right side.
{{{8 - 3c = 2c - 2}}}
Subtract 2c from both sides.
{{{8-3c-2c=2c-2c-2}}}
{{{8-5c=cross(2c)-cross(2c)-2}}}
{{{8-5c=-2}}}
Subtract 8 from both sides.
{{{8-8-5c=-2-8}}}
{{{cross(8)-cross(8)-5c=-10}}}
{{{-5c=-10}}}
Divide both sides by (-5)
{{{-5*c/(-5)=-10/(-5)}}}
{{{cross(-5)*c/cross(-5)=2}}}
{{{highlight_green(c=2)}}}

Check your solution using your original equation.

{{{8 - 3c = 2c - 2}}} 
{{{8 - 3(2) = 2(2) - 2}}} 
{{{8 - 6 = 4 - 2}}}
{{{2=2}}}
True statement, good solution.
