Question

Solve for u -5/2u = 15

Answer 1

Answer:

u=−10

Explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

u− 5 /2 u=15

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

u− 5/ 2 u=15

u+ −5 /2 u=15 (u+ −5 2 u)=15

(u+ −5 2 u)=15(Combine Like Terms)

−3 /2 u=15

−3 /2 u=15

Step 2: Multiply both sides by 2/(-3).

( 2 −3 )*( −3 2 u)=( −3 )*(15)

u=−10

Answer 2

U = -1/6

How to solve:

Multiply both sides by 2U to get rid of the denominator and you should end up with

`- 5 = 15(2u)`

then multiply and devide to get your U by itself.

you should then get

`u = - (1)/(6)`

after symplifying.
