solve for r.\n2 + 1.2(r - 1.5) = 4.64\nr =

Explanation:

Step1: Simplify the equation

Subtract (2) from both sides of the equation (2 + 1.2(r - 1.5)=4.64). (1.2(r - 1.5)=4.64 - 2) (1.2(r - 1.5)=2.64)

Step2: Isolate the term with (r)

Divide both sides by (1.2). (r-1.5=\frac{2.64}{1.2}) (r - 1.5 = 2.2)

Step3: Solve for (r)

Add (1.5) to both sides. (r=2.2 + 1.5)

Answer:

(3.7)
