To find r, first write out the equation:

Next, multiply both sides by 2:

Now, subtract both sides by 4:

Divide both sides by 3:

The answer to this problem is
r = 2. Hope this helps and have a phenomenal day!
What you need to do is find the smallest multiple that they both have (i forgot what that is called) list them like this:
12: 24 36 48 60 72
15: 30 45 60 75
60 is the lowest number that they both can multiply to
60 cups/lids is the answer
Answer:
x^2 + 14x + 49
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the distributive property:
(x + 7)(x + 7) = x^2 + 7x + 7x + 49 = x^2 + 14x + 49
