Start with the equation:
-10 + 3c + 1 = 3 + 5c
Combine constants on the left:
-9 + 3c = 3 + 5c
Subtract 3c from both sides:
-9 = 3 + 2c
Subtract 3 from both sides:
-12 = 2c
Divide by 2:
c = -6
Check: left = -10 + 3(-6) + 1 = -27, right = 3 + 5(-6) = -27. So c = -6.
-10 + 3c + 1 = 3 + 5c
Combine constants on the left:
-9 + 3c = 3 + 5c
Subtract 3c from both sides:
-9 = 3 + 2c
Subtract 3 from both sides:
-12 = 2c
Divide by 2:
c = -6
Check: left = -10 + 3(-6) + 1 = -27, right = 3 + 5(-6) = -27. So c = -6.
