Answer: r = 4


Explanation:

1. Divide both sides by -4

6r + 1 = -100/-4

2. Two negatives make a positve

6r + 1 = 100/4

3. Simplify 100/4 to 25

6r + 1 = 25

4. Subtract 1 from both sides

6r = 25 - 1

5. Simplify 25 - 1 to 24

6r = 24

6. Divide both sides by 6

r = 24/6

7. Simplify 24/6 to 4

r = 4

Hope this helps & happy halloween! :)

Simplify, 6r+1=25


\mathrm{Subtract\:}1\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}, 6r+1-1=25-1


\mathrm{Simplify}, 6r=24


\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}6, (6r)/(6)=(24)/(6)


\mathrm{Simplify}, r=4


\mathrm{The\:Correct\:Answer\:is\:r=4}
