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

Answer: 100 adult tickets must be sold.
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
let x represent Adults
AND y represent children
Since the theater seats 250 people we have that
x+y = 250..... equation 1
Also price for Adult ticket = $11
and price children ticket =$8
With total sales at $2,300, we have that
11x + 8y= 2300----- equation 2
Step 2
Making y subject in equation 1
' x+y = 250
y= 250-x
Putting y= 250- x in equation 2
11x + 8(250-x)= 2300
11x +2000-8x= 2300
11x -8x = 2300-2000
3x= 300
x 300/3
x= 100.
To find y
x+y = 250
100+y=250
y=250-100
y=150
Therefore 100 adult tickets and 150 children tickets must be sold to get a total sales of $2,300
