How do you solve for c in this problem? 9(c+5)+3c=11

Distribute the 9 to what it's multiplying in the parentheses
9c+45+3c=11
combine like terms of 3c and 9c
12c+45=11
get the variable by itself on one side by subtracting the constant
12c=-34
divide by 12
c=-34/12

1. First distribute the 9(c+5) to get: 9c+45+3c=11
2. The next thing to do is combine like terms to make the equation: 12c+45=11
3. Now you should subtract 45 from 11 to get "c" by itself: 12c= -34
4. Divide -34 by 12 to finalize your answer and get: c= -34/12
5. Finally simplify the fraction to get your final c= -17/6

Final  c = -17/6

I’m pretty sure the answer is counter steer.
