Question

-4 + u/4 = 8 solve for u simplify your answer as much as possible

Answer 1

u=36

Explanation:

1. multiply both sides by 4

`( - 4 + u)/(4) * 4 = 8 * 4`

`- 4 + u = 32`

2.now add 4 to both sides

`- 4 + u + 4 = 32 + 4`

`u = 36`

Answer 2

u = 48

Explanation:

-4 + u/4 = 8

add 4 to both sides:

-4 + u/4 + 4 = 8 + 4

u/4 = 12

multiply both sides by 4:

4(u/4) = 4(12)

u = 48
