Answer 1

-4(3r - 2) - 2(r + 1) = 0

-12r + 8 - 2r - 2 = 0

-14r + 6 = 0

-14r = - 6

r = 6/14

r = 3/7

Answer 2

`\huge\boxed{\sf -14r+6}`

Explanation:

`\sf -4(3r-2)-2(r+1)\\\\Resolving \ Parenthesis\\\\= -12r+8-2r-2\\\\Combining \ like \ terms\\\\= -12r -2r +8-2\\\\= -14r+6\\\\\rule[225]{225}{2}`

Hope this helped!
