What is -3(4r - 8) = -36 what's happening to the variable

Well, if you're talking about what operation is the variable about to be done with...then its multiplication because you're supposed to first solve the expression on the left by multiplying.

But, if you're talking about solving just look below:

−3(4r−8)=−36

(−3)(4r)+(−3)(−8)=−36     (Distribute here)

−12r+24=−36                  (Subtract 24 from both sides.)

−12r+24−24=−36−24

−12r=−60                         (Divide both sides by -12)

     r=5
