distribute so its 6(-u) – 6(5) + 8(2u) + 8(1), multiply then add or subtract as needed.

the best way to do it is to look in your book and learn on your own

First get rid of the bracket by multiplying out:

-6U-30+16U+8=0

Add the the unknown terms and add all the constants:

10U-22=0

Take the 22 over to the other side but dont forget to change the sign:

10U=22

Then just divide by ten both sides:

U=2.2

6(-u-5)+8(2u+1)

= -6u – 30 + 16u + 8

= -6u + 16u -30 +8

= 10u – 22

10u = 22

u = 22/10

u = 11/5

6(-u-5)+8(2u+1)

You can simplify it but you can’t solve it because it is not an equation, does not equal anything.

Just a note: Follow Katie’s example, not Faz’s. You cannot “solve” a string of numbers without an equals sign in the question.

FYI: simplified I get

-6u-30+16u+8

10u-22

But I may be wrong, I wrote this is about 10 seconds…
