Question

What is -2r+3 >̲ 19 helpppppppp

Answer 1

r ≤ -8

Explanation:

First subtract 3 from both sides.

-2r ≥ 16

Then divide -2 from both sides; when it is a negative turn the sign around.

r ≤ -8

Answer 2

r ≤ -8 is your answer.

Explanation:

Isolate the variable (r). What you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

First, subtract 3 from both sides

-2r + 3 (-3) ≥ 19 (-3)

-2r ≥ 19 - 3

-2r ≥ 16

Isolate the variable r. Note that when dividing by a negative number, you must flip the sign.

(-2r)/-2 ≥ (16)/-2

r ≥ 16/(-2)

r ≤ -8

r ≤ -8 is your answer.
