Isolate c: Which operation should be used to isolate c?In 2.32=−0.8+3.9c, we should first move the constant term on the right side to the left side by adding 0.8 to both sides.Add 0.8 to both sides.
Addition step: Perform the addition to find the new equation.2.32+0.8=3.9c3.12=3.9c
Solve for c: Which operation should be used to solve for c?Now, divide both sides by the coefficient of c, which is 3.9, to isolate c.Divide by 3.9
Division step: Perform the division to find the value of c.3.93.12=cc≈0.8
