Solve the equation. 2(5c – 7) = 1
2(5c – 7) = 1
Distribute the 2 into the numbers within the parenthesis
10c-14=1
Add 14 to both sides
10c=15
Divide 10 on both sides
Final Answer: c= 1 1/2 or 1.5
c=3/2 is the final answer. First, you had to divide by two (2) from both sides of equation, and it gave us ⇒ \(\frac{2(5c-7)}{2}= \frac{1}{2}\). And secondly, you had to simplify, and it gave us ⇒\(5c-7=\frac{1}{2}\). Next, you had to add by seven (7) from both sides of equation, and it gave us ⇒\(5c-7+7=\frac{1}{2}+7\). Therefore, you can also simplify, and it gave us ⇒\(5c=\frac{15}{2}\). In fact, you divide by five (5) from both sides of equation, and it gave us ⇒\(\frac{5c}{5}= \frac{12}{2/5}\). And finally, simplify it's should be the final answer is c=3/2 is the final answer. Hope this helps! And thank you for posting your question at here on brainly, and have a great day. -Charlie
