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
The answer would be A. 3 1/2.
Explanation
First find a common denominator, which would be 6. You times the top number the same amount of times you times the bottom number to get the common denominator, so now it's 1 4/6 + 1 5/6 now you add, 1+1=2, now you need to add 4 and 5 together, bc they are the top numbers of the fraction. That would be 9 so now the problem is 2 9/6, now we simplify the fraction so that it is 3 3/6 now that simplifies into 1/2 so the answer is 3 1/2
Speed=distance/time
suppose the distance of the first day is d, and the time is t
distance of the second day: d+0.17d=1.17d
time of the second day: t+0.2t=1.2t
speed of the second day: 1.17d/1.2t=0.975(d/t)=(1-0.025)(d/t)
so the speed of the second day is 2.5% slower than the first day.
