Answer:
-8b + 9 - 5k
Step-by-step explanation:
I am assuming the blue highlighted portion is your answer, and is not a part of the initial question
(-4b + 15 - 7k) - (6 + 4b - 2k)
Combine like terms
-4b - + 4b
Negative + Positive = Negative
-4b - 4b = -8b
15 - 6 = 9
-7k - - 2k
Negative + Negative = Positive
-7k + 2k = -5k
Put them all together:
0b + 9 - 5k
Simplify
-8b + 9 - 5k
I got the same answer as you (just in a different order)
I think it’s the second option
Well first you have to add common like terms in this case 2r and -6r to get -4r now your equation is -4r+8=40, now subtract 8 from both sides to leave r by itself and get -4r=32, now divide both sides by -4 to get r=-8
Hope this helps
