Solve equation (4r-2) - (3r+1) = 8

(4r-2) - (3r+1) = 8

4r-2-3r-1=8

r-3=8

r = 8+3

r = 11

Simplify each term.

4r-2-3r-1=8

Add 4r and - 3r to get r.

r-2-1=8

Add - 2 and - 1 to get - 3.

r-3 = 8

Since - 3 does not contain the variable to solve for, move it to the right-hand side of the equation by adding 3 to both sides.

r=3+8

Add 3 and 8 to get 11.

r=11

r is equal to 11
