Answer:

r = - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- 1.5(4 - r) = - 12 ( divide both sides by - 1.5 )

4 - r = 8 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

- r = 4 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

r = - 4

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

1.5(4-r) = -12

To solve, first multiply 4-r by 1.5. When you do this, you can then simplify the expression and write it as 6-1.5r=-12.

With the simplified expression, you can solve for r.

Subtract 6 from both sides then divide by -1.5.

-1.5r=-18

r=12
