What is the value of r in the equation? -1.5(4-r) = -12

The answer would be -4

Step-by-step explanation:

8* -1.5= -12

r= -5

Step-by-step explanation:

-1.5(4-r) = -12

-4.5r+1.5r = -12

1.5r= -12+4.5

1.5r= -7.5

r = -5

-4

Step-by-step explanation:

-1.5 (4 - r) = -12

(4 - r) =

-r =   - 4

r = 4 -   = -4

12

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following equation and we are to solve for the variable r and find its value:

Expanding the brackets to get:

r = 12

B  -4

Step-by-step explanation:

-1.5(4 - r) = -12

Distribute -1.5.

-6 + 1.5r = -12

Add 6 to both sides.

1.5r = -6

Divide both sides by 1.5.

r = -4

Your answer is -4.

B.-4

Step-by-step explanation:

hope this helped  

I think that the right answer is the first, because:

- 6 + 1.5r = - 12

+ 1.5r = -12 + 6

1.5/1.5 = - 6

r = - 6

r = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

-1.5(4-r)=-12

Divide each side by -1.5

-1.5 / -1.5  *(4-r)=-12 / -1.5

(4-r) =8

Subtract 4 from each side

4-r-4 = 8-4

-r = 4

Divide each side by -1

-r/-1 = 4/-1

r = -4

r = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

-1.5(4-r)=-12

Divide each side by -1.5

-1.5/-1.5(4-r)=-12/-1.5

(4-r)=8

Subtract 4 from each side

4-r-4 = 8-4

-r = 4

Divide each side by -1

r = -4
