Answer

$0\gt r$

Work Step by Step

$-\frac{3}{4}\gt r-\frac{3}{4}$ : add $\frac{3}{4}$ to both sides $-\frac{3}{4}+\frac{3}{4} \gt r-\frac{3}{4}+\frac{3}{4}$ : simplify $0\gt r$ Verify that 0 is not a solution. $-\frac{3}{4}\overset?\gt 0-\frac{3}{4}$ $-\frac{3}{4}\ /\!\!\!\!\!\gt-\frac{3}{4}\checkmark$ Verify that a number less than 0 is a solution. $-\frac{3}{4}\overset?\gt -1-\frac{3}{4}$ $-\frac{3}{4} \gt -1\frac{3}{4}\checkmark$
