Answer 1

To subtract \(3r\) from both sides of the equation \(3r - 2 = 6r + 10\), we perform the following steps:

1. Start with the original equation: \[ 3r - 2 = 6r + 10 \]

2. Subtract \(3r\) from both sides: \[ 3r - 3r - 2 = 6r - 3r + 10 \]

3. Simplify both sides: \[ -2 = 3r + 10 \]

Now, all the \(r\) terms are on the right side of the equation. The equation is now: \[ -2 = 3r + 10 \]
