Answer:

r ≤ -1

Explanation:

Given in the question

3r+2(12r+7) ≤ 5r-8

It can be solve by Simplifying and Reordering the terms

3r + 2(12r) + 2(7) ≤ 5r - 8

3r + 24r + 14 ≤ 5r - 8

27r + 14 ≤ 5r - 8

27r - 5r +14 + 8 ≤ 0

22r + 22 ≤ 0

22r ≤ -22

Move term containing r to the left, all term to the right.

r ≤ -22/22

simplifying

r ≤ -1

all negative integers which are smaller than or equal to -1
