Answer:

u = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the slope intercept formula:

\frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}  = slope

Substitute our values from the points and the known slope:

\frac{-7 - 0}{8 - u} = -7

Now we multiply both sides by (8 - u) to isolate the x:

(8-u) x \frac{-7}{8 - u} = -7 (8 - u)

Next we add 56 to both sides:

-7 = -56 + 7u

Finish off by dividing both sides by 7:

7u = 49

u = 7
