Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Remember to do the opposite of PEMDAS.
PEMDAS =
Parenthesis
Exponents (& Roots)
Multiplication
Division
Addition
Subtraction
First, subtract 6 from both sides:
2x + 6 (-6) = -r - 15 (-6)
2x = -r + (-15 - 6)
2x = -r + (-21)
2x = - r - 21
Next, divide 2 from both sides:
~
e
−1(9+8)
That is my answer

Given:
(segment addition postulate)
(substitution)
Solve for x
Collect like terms
Divide both sides by -1
Plug in the value of x
