+5r+%2B+6+=+-14r+-+13+
Subtract +6+ from both sides
+5r+%2B+6+=+-14r+-+13+
+-6+=+-6+
---------------
+5r+=+-14r+-13+-6+
Add +14r+ to both sides
+5r+=+-14r+-13+-6+
+14r+=+14r+
----------------
+5r+%2B+14r+=+-13+-+6+
Combine the terms on both sides
+19r+=+-19+
Divide both sides by +19+
+%28+19%2F19+%29%2Ar+=+-19%2F19+
+r+=+-1+
------------------
Check the answer:
+5r+%2B+6+=+-14r+-+13+
+5%2A%28-1%29+%2B+6+=+-14%2A%28-1%29+-+13+
+-5+%2B+6+=+14+-+13+
+1+=+1+
OK
