Answer:

-3r + 15 ---> answer

Explanation:

r < 5

You are going to multiply both sides with 3. The reason being is that 3 is a positive number and the equality sign will not change if you use +3.

3r < 15

Now, subtract 15 from both sides, you will get this:

3r < 15

-15 -15

-------------

3r — 15 < 0

Lastly, using the Modulus function, we are going to add a negative sign to the content of our previous step because it's already negative.

So, -3r + 15 is the final solution if r < 5 in the given equation of l3r-15l
