So you want to isolate the variable, c. You might want to switch around the problem as well, and make it -4c+1/4=5/4. It's easier. So you want to do the inverse of addition (subtraction) and subtract 1/4 from both sides, so you have -4c+1/4-1/4=5/4-1/4. You end up with with -4c=4/4, or 1. So -4c=1. Now, you divide divide by -4 on each side. So you end up with c=-0.25. You need any more clarification?
Answer: The solution is c = -1/4
We try to get c alone.
First subtract 1/4 from both sides. Then divide both sides by -4.
[tex]\frac{5}{4}=-4c+\frac{1}{4}\\\frac{5}{4}-\frac{1}{4}=-4c\\\frac{4}{4}=-4c\\1=-4c\\c=-\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
The solution is c = -1/4
