Amos · Answer 1

B - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

-1.5 (4 - r) = - 12

Distribute - 1.5.

-6 + 1.5r = - 12

Add 6 to both sides.

1.5r = - 6

Divide both sides by 1.5.

r = - 4

Your answer is - 4.

Broderick Robertson · Answer 2

r = - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

-1.5 (4-r) = -12

Divide each side by - 1.5

-1.5 / - 1.5 * (4-r) = -12 / - 1.5

(4-r) = 8

Subtract 4 from each side

4-r-4 = 8-4

-r = 4

Divide each side by - 1

-r/-1 = 4/-1

r = - 4
