Full solution

Q. Solve for uu.\newlineu2+(6)=10\frac{u}{-2} + (-6) = -10\newlineu=u = _____
  1. Add 66 to isolate variable: Isolate the variable term u2\frac{u}{-2} by adding 66 to both sides of the equation.\newlineu2+(6)+6=10+6\frac{u}{-2} + (-6) + 6 = -10 + 6\newlineSimplify the equation.\newlineu2=4\frac{u}{-2} = -4
  2. Simplify the equation: Multiply both sides of the equation by 2–2 to solve for uu.
    u2×(2)=4×(2)\frac{u}{–2} \times (–2) = –4 \times (–2)
    Simplify the equation.
    u=8u = 8
