What is the answer for -3(1+6r)=14r

r = (-3)/32

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for r:

-3 (6 r + 1) = 14 r

Expand out terms of the left hand side:

-18 r - 3 = 14 r

Subtract 14 r from both sides:

(-18 r - 14 r) - 3 = 14 r - 14 r

-18 r - 14 r = -32 r:

-32 r - 3 = 14 r - 14 r

14 r - 14 r = 0:

-32 r - 3 = 0

Add 3 to both sides:

(3 - 3) - 32 r = 3

3 - 3 = 0:

-32 r = 3

Divide both sides of -32 r = 3 by -32:

(-32 r)/(-32) = 3/(-32)

(-32)/(-32) = 1:

r = 3/(-32)

Multiply numerator and denominator of 3/(-32) by -1:

 r = (-3)/32
