Question
Solve the equation
u=−3
Evaluate
−9−4u=−u
Move the variable to the left side
−9−4u+u=0
Add the terms
More Steps

Evaluate
−4u+u
Collect like terms by calculating the sum or difference of their coefficients
(−4+1)u
Add the numbers
−3u
−9−3u=0
Move the constant to the right side
−3u=0+9
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−3u=9
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
3u=−9
Divide both sides
33u=3−9
Divide the numbers
u=3−9
