Question

What is 8(4u-1)-12u=11(2u-6)

Answer 1

Answer:

u=29

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

u = 29

Step-by-step explanation:

8 ( 4u - 1 ) - 12u = 11 ( 2u - 6 )

Distribute 8 in left hand side and 11 in right hand side.

• 32u - 8 - 12u = 22u - 66

Combine like terms

• 32u - 12u - 8 = 22u - 66
• 20u - 8 = 22u - 66

Move variable to the right hand side and change their sign.

• -8 = 22u - 20u - 66
• -8 = 2u - 66

Move constant to the left hand side and change their sign.

• -8 + 66 = 2u

Combine like terms.

• 58 = 2u

Divide both side by 2 .

• 58 / 2 = 2u / 2
• 29 = u
