Answer 2

Answer:
`u=(5)/(2)`

Explanation:

Given the equation
`(3)/(2)=(u+5)/(5)`, you need to:

Apply the Multiplication property of equality and multiply both sides of the equation by 5:

`(5)((3)/(2))=((u+5)/(5))(5)\\\\(15)/(2)=u+5`

Now, applying the Subtraction property of equality, you need to subtract 5 to both sides of the equation. Then you get:

`(15)/(2)-5=u+5-5\\u=(5)/(2)`
