See a solution process below:

Add $14$ $color(red)(14)$ to each side of the inequality to solve for $c$ $c$ while keeping the inequality balanced:

$c - 14 + 14 \geq 2 + 14$ $c - 14 + color(red)(14) >= 2 + color(red)(14)$

$c - 0 \geq 16$ $c - 0 >= 16$

$c \geq 16$ $c >= 16$

How do you solve c−14≥2c- 14\geq 2?
