Question
Simplify the expression
−6c
Evaluate
c−c−c−c−c−c−c−c
Write the repeated addition as multiplication
c−c×7
Use the commutative property to reorder the terms
c−7c
Collect like terms by calculating the sum or difference of their coefficients
(1−7)c
Solution
−6c
Show Solution

Find the roots
c=0
Evaluate
c−c−c−c−c−c−c−c
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
c−c−c−c−c−c−c−c=0
Subtract the terms
0−c−c−c−c−c−c=0
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−c−c−c−c−c−c=0
