Solve -2(3c)-5-8c 9

Evaluate

- 2 (3 c) - 5 - 8 c \times 9

To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0

- 2 (3 c) - 5 - 8 c \times 9 = 0

Multiply the terms

- 2 \times 3 c - 5 - 8 c \times 9 = 0

Multiply the numbers

- 6 c - 5 - 8 c \times 9 = 0

Multiply the terms

- 6 c - 5 - 72 c = 0

Subtract the terms

More Steps

- 78 c - 5 = 0

Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

- 78 c = 0 + 5

Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression

- 78 c = 5

Change the signs on both sides of the equation

78 c = - 5

Divide both sides

\frac{78 c}{78} = \frac{- 5}{78}

Divide the numbers

c = \frac{- 5}{78}

Solution

c = - \frac{5}{78}

Alternative Form

c = - 0.0 \dot{6} 4102 \dot{5}
