Answer:

The value of u is 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The rule of the slope of a line is m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}} , where

(x_{1},y_{1}) and (x_{2},y_{2}) are two points on the line

Let us use this rule to solve the question

∵ The slope of the line is -3

∴ m = -3

∵ The two points on the line are (-5, u) and (-4, 3)

∴ x_{1} = -5 and x_{2} = -4

∴ y_{1} = u and y_{2} = 3

→ Substitute these values in the rule of the slope above

∴ -3=\frac{3-u}{-4-(-5)}

∴ -3=\frac{3-u}{1}

→ By using cross multiplication

∴ -3 × 1 = 3 - u

∴ -3 = 3 - u

→ Add u to both sides to move u from the right side to the left side

∴ -3 + u = 3 - u + u

∴ -3 + u = 3

→ Add 3 to both sides to move -3 from the left side to the right side

∴ -3 + 3 + u = 3 + 3

∴ u = 6

The value of u is 6

\bf \cfrac{5}{\frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{x+1}}\qquad \cfrac{}{\impliedby LCD\textit{ will be 6(x+1)}}\implies \cfrac{5}{\frac{1(x+1)+1(6)}{6(x+1)}}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{5}{\frac{x+1+6}{6(x+1)}}\implies \cfrac{\frac{5}{1}}{\frac{x+7}{6(x+1)}}\implies \cfrac{5}{1}\cdot \cfrac{6(x+1)}{x+7}\implies \cfrac{30(x+1)}{x+7}

and you can expand the numerator if you wish, it won't be simplified further though.
