Hey there!
39 = - u / 6
MULTIPLY 6 to BOTH SIDES
39(9) = (-u / 6)(6)
CANCEL out: the RIGHT side
KEEP: the LEFT side because it helps solve for the u-value
NEW EQUATION: -u = 234
DIVIDE -1 to BOTH SIDES
-1u / -1 = 234 / -1
CANCEL out: -1 / -1 because it gives you 1
KEEP: 234 / -1 because it gives you the result of the u-value
NEW EQUATION: u = 234 / -1
SIMPLIFY IT!
u = -234
Therefore, your answer is: [u = -234]
Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!

Answer:
x= -8
Step-by-step explanation:
2x+3x-12=8x+12
5x-12=8x+12
5x-8x=12+12
-3x=24
24/-3
x= -8
3x + 6 = -1 - 3 + 4x
Combine like terms on the right side.
3x + 6 = -4 + 4x
Add 4 to both sides.
3x + 10 = 4x
Subtract 3x from both sides.
10 = x
The equation has one solution (10).
