Question

Solve for variable: 2(r-3)/4 -8 =50

Answer 1

Hello!

Let's begin by multiplying all 3 terms by 4, to remove the fraction:

2(r-3) - 8(4) = 50(4)

Then 2r - 6 - 32 = 200. Consolidating the constants on the right side, we get:

2r = 162. Solving for r, we divide both sides by 2, obtaining r = 81 (answer)

Answer 2

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a equation:

`(2(r-3))/(4)-8=50`

adding 8 on both sides, we get

`(2(r-3))/(4)=58`

Multiplying both sides by 4, we get

`2(r-3)=58* 4`

Dividing both sides by 2, we get

`(r-3)=58* 2`

or r-3= 116

adding 3 on both sides, we get

r=119

Hence, Value of r is:

119
