Answer: u = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the equation u + 2 = -8, and we need to find the value of u. In order to do that, u needs to be by itself on one side of the equation, and numeral by itself on the other side.

The way to do this is by subtracting 2 from each sided of the equation. This successfully isolates u and gives us the equation u = -10, which is our answer.


u + 2 = -8


u + 2 -2= -8 -2


u=-10

Hope this helps! Have a great day!
