Subtract 10 and collect terms to get the variable term by itself on the left.

... 4c = 24

Divide by the coefficient of the variable, 4.

... c = 6

The appropriate choice is the second one:

... 6

_____

You don't actually have to sove the equation to find the right answer. You just need to see which answer works.

-6: 5(-6) -(-6) +10 = -14 ≠ 34

6: 5(6) -(6) +10 = 34 . . . . . . . this answer works (you can stop here)

11: 5(11) -(11) +10 = 54 ≠ 34

-11: 5(-11) -(-11) +10 = -34 ≠ 34
