Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$-12u-\left(-11u\right)-4u+7u-5u=14\\\\\mathrm{Apply\:rule}\:-\left(-a\right)=a\\-12u+11u-4u+7u-5u=14\\\\\mathrm{Add\:similar\:elements:}\:-12u+11u-4u+7u-5u=-3u\\-3u=14\\\\\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}-3\\\frac{-3u}{-3}=\frac{14}{-3}\\\\Simplify\\u=-\frac{14}{3}\\\\u = -4\frac{2}{3}$

What is the slope 19,-16 -7,-15

$\bf \begin{array}{lllll}
&x_1&y_1&x_2&y_2\\
% (a,b)
&({{ 19}}\quad ,&{{ -16}})\quad 
% (c,d)
&({{ -7}}\quad ,&{{ -15}})
\end{array}
\\\\\\
% slope = m
slope = {{ m}}= \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies 
\cfrac{{{ y_2}}-{{ y_1}}}{{{ x_2}}-{{ x_1}}}\implies \cfrac{-15-(-16)}{-7-19}\implies \cfrac{-15+16}{-7-19}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{1}{-26}\implies -\cfrac{1}{26}$
