Hi guest!
First off, we can start by subtracting 7 from both sides. We then get \(-2|7-9c|=-22\)
Then, we can divide both sides by -2. Now, we have \(|7-9c|=11\).
Since there are the absolute value brackets, there are 2 different scenarios:
\(7-9c=11\), AND \(7-9c=-11\). Now we just solve for both equations.
\(7-9c=11\)
\(-9c=4\)
\(c=-\frac{4}{9}\)
AND
\(7-9c=-11\)
\(-9c=-18\)
\(c=2\)
So, the final answer is \(\boxed{c=2 \text{ AND } c=-\frac{4}{9}}\)
I hope this helped you, guest!
