Our current equation is:
-8r -31 = -3(5r -6)
To solve for this, we need to get r on one side of the equation and then simplify if needed.
On the right side of the equation, we have a pending Distributive Property, which is when you multiply the number/variable outside of the parenthesis by all numbers/variables in the parenthesis.
Let's simplify this Distributive Property to help understand our equation better.
-3(5r -6)
Multiply -3 by each number/variable separately (unless they are already being multiplied, like 2x, 1/2x, etc).
-3(5r) + -3(-6).
-3(5r) = -15r
-3(-6) = 18 (both negatives need to be in parenthesis to keep a product as negative, and if you do not multiply them in that way, you will end up with a positive product).
Your equation now is:
-8r -31 = -15r + 18
Add 15r to both sides to get r on one side.
7r -31 = 18 is now our current equation.
Add 31 to both sides to get 7r by itself.
7r = 49 is now our equation.
r is still being multiplied by 7, so we need to do the opposite of multiplying by 7.
Divide both sides by 7.
r = 7.

2(3)-9(2)-11x+8=0
(2)(3)-(9)(2)-11x+8=0
6+-18+-11x+8=0
(-11x)+(6+-18+8)=0 Combine Like Terms.
-11x+-4=0
-11x-4=0
Add 4 to both sides.
-11x-4+4=0+4
-11x=4
Divide both sides by -11.
-11x/-11=4/-11
x=-4/11
Hope this helps!
Answer:
6 blocks
Step-by-step explanation:
It is just doing 14-8 which would get you 6. So the distance is 6 blocks.
Hope that helps. Have a great night! Or day!
