Q. Evaluate the expression for c=3c = -3.\newlineWrite your answer in simplest form.\newlinec2c+5=\frac{c - 2}{-c + 5} = __
  1. Identify Expression: Identify the expression after substituting c=3c = -3\newlineSubstitute 3-3 for cc in c2c+5\frac{c - 2}{-c + 5}.\newline(3)2(3)+5\frac{(-3) - 2}{(-3) + 5}
  2. Substitute and Simplify: Evaluate (3)2(-3) - 2(3)2=5(-3) - 2 = -5Numerator: 5-5
  3. Evaluate Numerator: Evaluate (3)+5-(-3) + 5(3)+5=3+5=8-(-3) + 5 = 3 + 5 = 8Denominator: 88
  4. Evaluate Denominator: 58-\frac{5}{8}\newlineThe fraction is already in its simplest form.\newlineFinal expression: 58-\frac{5}{8}
