Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is option 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to eliminate brackets, you have to divide -1.5 to both sides :

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

$- 1.5(4 - r) \div - 1.5= - 12 \div - 1.5$

$4 - r = 8$

Next you have to solve r :

$4 - r = 8$

$- r = 8 - 4$

$- r = 4$

$r = - 4$
