What is 2r - 6r 8 = 40?
well first you have to add common like terms in this case 2r and -6r to get -4r now your equation is -4r+8=40, now subtract 8 from both sides to leave r by itself and get -4r=32, now divide both sides by -4 to get r=-8Hope this helps
2r( 1 - 3×8) = 402r (1 - 24) = 402r(-23)=40-46r=40 r = -40/46r. = - 0.86
