11 = -1 - c/2

Answer 1

To solve for c, we can start by isolating c on one side of the equation.

11 = -1 - c/2

First, let's get rid of the -1 on the right side by adding 1 to both sides of the equation.

11 + 1 = -1 + 1 - c/2

This simplifies to:

12 = -c/2

Next, let's get rid of the fraction by multiplying both sides of the equation by 2.

2 * 12 = 2 * (-c/2)

This simplifies to:

24 = -c

Finally, to solve for c, we need to multiply both sides of the equation by -1.

-1 * 24 = -1 * -c

This simplifies to:

-24 = c

So the value of c is -24.
