How do you solve for c: Q = 2c + 1?

1 Answer

Apr 5, 2018

#c = (Q-1)/2#

Here's how I did it:

Explanation:

#Q = 2c + 1#

To solve for #c#, we need to make #c# alone. In order to do that, we have to do a couple of steps.

First, let's subtract #1# from both sides of the equation:
#Q - 1 = 2c#

Now, let's divide both sides by #2#:
#(Q-1)/2 = c#

So #c = (Q-1)/2#
