Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following equation and we are to solve for the variable r and find its value:

[tex] - 1 . 5 ( 4 - r ) = - 1 2 [/tex]

Expanding the brackets to get:

[tex]6-1.5r=-12[/tex]

[tex]-1.5r=-12-6[/tex]

[tex] - 1 . 5 r = - 1 8 [/tex]

[tex] r = \frac { - 1 8 } { - 1 . 5 } [/tex]

r = 12

Answer:

-4

Step-by-step explanation:

-1.5 (4 - r) = -12

(4 - r) = [tex]\frac{-12}{-1.5}[/tex]

-r =  [tex]\frac{12}{1.5}[/tex] - 4

r = 4 -  [tex]\frac{12}{1.5}[/tex] = -4
