Question

$$16-2r=-3r+6r+1....r=$$

Solve for r

$r=3$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Combine $-3r$ and $6r$ to get $3r$.

$$16-2r=3r+1$$

Subtract $3r$ from both sides.

$$16-2r-3r=1$$

Combine $-2r$ and $-3r$ to get $-5r$.

$$16-5r=1$$

Subtract $16$ from both sides.

$$-5r=1-16$$

Subtract $16$ from $1$ to get $-15$.

$$-5r=-15$$

Divide both sides by $-5$.

$$r=\frac{-15}{-5}$$

Divide $-15$ by $-5$ to get $3$.

$$r=3$$
