Simplify −3/4r + 3 − 56r − 6. (1 point)

1 answer

To simplify the expression \(-\frac{3}{4}r + 3 - 56r - 6\), we can combine like terms.

First, let's combine the constant terms (3 and -6):

\[ 3 - 6 = -3 \]

Next, we'll combine the \(r\) terms:

\[ -\frac{3}{4}r - 56r \]

To combine these terms, we need a common denominator. We can express \(-56r\) as \(-\frac{224}{4}r\):

\[ -\frac{3}{4}r - \frac{224}{4}r = -\frac{3 + 224}{4}r = -\frac{227}{4}r \]

Now we can write the simplified expression as:

\[ -\frac{227}{4}r - 3 \]

So, the simplified expression is:

\[ -\frac{227}{4}r - 3 \]
