c/ –5–10=5

c/ –5=
Add 10 to both sides
c=
Multiply both sides by
–
5

Answer 1

Let's solve the equation step by step, filling in the missing terms as we go.

We start with the equation:

\[
\frac{c}{-5} - 10 = 5
\]

### Step 1: Isolate the term with \( c \)

Add 10 to both sides:

\[
\frac{c}{-5} = 5 + 10
\]

Simplifying the right side gives:

\[
\frac{c}{-5} = 15
\]

### Step 2: Solve for \( c \)

Now, multiply both sides by \(-5\):

\[
c = 15 \times -5
\]

Calculating that gives:

\[
c = -75
\]

So, the completed steps are:

1. \(\frac{c}{-5} - 10 = 5\)
2. \(\frac{c}{-5} = 15\) (after adding 10)
3. \(c = -75\) (after multiplying by \(-5\))
