3c+2=−10

1 answer

To solve for c in the equation 3c + 2 = -10, we need to isolate c on one side of the equation.

First, subtract 2 from both sides of the equation:

3c + 2 - 2 = -10 - 2
3c = -12

Next, divide both sides by 3 to solve for c:

3c / 3 = -12 / 3
c = -4

Therefore, the solution to the equation 3c + 2 = -10 is c = -4.
