Find the solution to the equation 4r + 2(r - 8) = 4(3 + r).

r = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Use distributive property:

4r + 2r - 16 = 12 + 4r

Combine like terms:

6r - 16 = 12 + 4r

Isolate the variable:

6r = 28 + 4r

2r = 28

r = 14

see explanation

step-by-step explanation:

a

(6r + 7) + (13 + 7r) ( remove brackets and collect like terms )

= 6r + 7 + 13 + 7r

= 13r + 20

b

remove brackets and collect like terms

13 - r - 1 + r

= 12 - r

c

remove brackets and collect like terms

= - 8 - r + 2r - 4

= - 12 + r

d

remove brackets and collect like terms

= 7r - - - 6r

[-   - = - - = - ]

= r -
