Answer:
c = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
You are solving for the variable, c. Isolate the variable c. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other.
Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

First, subtract 1 from both sides of the equation:
3c + 1 = 10
3c + 1 (-1) = 10 (-1)
3c = 10 - 1
3c = 9
Next, divide 3 from both sides of the equation:
(3c)/3 = (9)/3
c = 9/3
c = 3
c = 3 is your answer.
