Number 5 is c, number 6 is 'a'
2x+ 1 = 3x - 1 ;
1 + 1 = 3x - 2x ;
2 = x ;
x = 2 ;
Then, y = 2x2 + 1 = 5 ;
Answer: r=(-189)
first you subtract both sides by 8 and get -21=r/9
then you multiply 9 with each side and get -189 = r
you can check by rewriting the problem with -189 as r and solving the equation
