Answer:

-8 < r < 3

Explanation:

Because you are trying to solve for r, all we have to do is isolate the variable.

To do this we can divide all 3 terms by -3, because that's what's in front of the r.

24/-3 > -3r/-3 > -9/-3

Dividing or multiplying by a negative number reverses this inequality, so the > signs must be flipped around to <

All that's left to do is simplify the fractions, and ensure that the inequality signs are flipped.
