Full solution

Q. \newlineSolve for r r .\newline105r=6r1 -10-5 r=-6 r-1
  1. Combine Like Terms: First, we want to get all the terms with rr on one side of the equation and the constant terms on the other side. We can do this by adding 6r6r to both sides of the equation.\newline105r+6r=6r1+6r-10 - 5r + 6r = -6r - 1 + 6r\newlineThis simplifies to:\newline10+r=1-10 + r = -1
  2. Isolate Variable: Next, we want to isolate rr by getting rid of the 10-10 on the left side. We can do this by adding 1010 to both sides of the equation.\newline10+r+10=1+10-10 + r + 10 = -1 + 10\newlineThis simplifies to:\newliner=9r = 9
