Full solution

Q. Solve for rr.\newliner=3-|r| = -3\newlineWrite your answers as integers or as proper or improper fractions in simplest form.\newliner=r = _____ or r=r = _____
  1. Understand the equation: Understand the equation.\newlineWe have the equation r=3\lvert r \rvert = -3. This means the absolute value of rr, when negated, equals 3-3.
  2. Isolate the absolute value: Isolate the absolute value.\newlineTo find the value of rr, we first need to isolate the absolute value on one side of the equation. Since both sides of the equation are negative, we can multiply both sides by 1-1 to get r=3|r| = 3.
  3. Solve for rr: Solve for rr.\newlineThe absolute value of a number is always non-negative. Therefore, if r=3|r| = 3, then rr can be either 33 or 3-3 because both 33 and 3-3 have an absolute value of 33.
