Given:
[tex]52\text{ = 4(c + 5)}[/tex]Solution
We are required to solve the equation for c.
First, we open the bracket:
[tex]52\text{ = 4c + 20}[/tex]Next, we make c the subject of formular:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 4c\text{ = 52 - 20} \\ 4c\text{ = 32} \\ \text{Divide both sides of the equation by 4} \\ c\text{ = 8} \end{gathered}[/tex]Answer: c = 8
