\huge\text{Hey there!}



\mathsf{5(u + 4) - 9u}\\\mathsf{= 5(u) + 5(4) - 9u}\\\mathsf{= 5u + 20 - 9u}\\\mathsf{= (5u - 9u) + 20}\\\mathsf{= 5u - 9u + 20}\\\mathsf{= -4u + 20}



\huge\text{Therefore, your answer should be:}


\huge\boxed{\frak{-4u + 20}}\huge\checkmark



\huge\text{Good luck on your assignment \& enjoy your day!}
