Question

complete the process of solving the equation. fill in the missing term and select the missing description. simplify any fractions. \\(\frac{r - 19}{6} = -7\\) \\(r - 19 = -42\\) \\(r = \square\\) dropdown options: add 6 to both sides, subtract 6 from both sides, multiply both sides by 6, divide both sides by 6, combine like terms

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the operation

To get from \(\frac{r - 19}{6}=-7\) to \(r - 19=-42\), we multiply both sides by 6. So the missing description is "Multiply both sides by 6".

Step2: Solve for r

Now, to solve \(r - 19=-42\) for \(r\), we add 19 to both sides.
\(r-19 + 19=-42+ 19\)
\(r=-23\)

Answer:

The missing description is "Multiply both sides by 6" and \(r = -23\)
