will medal

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ r }{ 5 }-6= -1\]

pooja195 (pooja195):

What do you think the first step would be?

OpenStudy (study_together):

Do you have to find for R

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

pooja195 (pooja195):

What do you think the first step would be?

OpenStudy (study_together):

The first step would be to add the six to the -1

OpenStudy (study_together):

So, you get 5

OpenStudy (study_together):

Then you would divide the 5 by the denominator 5 right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah

OpenStudy (study_together):

To get what...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1

OpenStudy (study_together):

So, your answer would be r=1

OpenStudy (study_together):

You got it right

OpenStudy (study_together):

yay

pooja195 (pooja195):

That's incorrect.

OpenStudy (study_together):

What is the right answer then

OpenStudy (study_together):

Yes that is right

pooja195 (pooja195):

Start by adding 6 to both sides \[\frac{ r }{ 5 }-6+6= -1+6\] \[\frac{ r }{ 5}=5\] Now you need to multiply by the reciprocal \[5*\frac{ r }{ 5}=5*5\] \[r=5*5\]
