Answer: u = -9/2 + 3w

Explanation:

Hi, An Independent Variable in an Equation is a variable that may have its value freely chosen without considering values of any other variable. Is also known as the input value of a function.

So, to rearrange we have to isolate u:

-2u+6w=9

-2u =9 -6w

2u = -9 +6w

u= (-9 +6w)/2

u = -9/2 + 3w

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

Answer:


u=3w-4.5

Explanation:

we have


-2u+6w=9

Solve for u

That means ------> isolate the variable u (dependent variable)

Subtract 6w both sides


-2u=9-6w

Divide by -2 both sides


u=(9-6w)/(-2)


u=3w-4.5
