Answer:
u = -2
Explanation:
Slope of the line can be calculated using the following rule:
slope = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
We are given :
slope = 1/8
point (u,-9) represent (x1,y1)
point (6,-8) represent (x2,y2)
Substitute with the givens in the above equation and solve for u as follows:
slope = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
1/8 = (-8--9) / (6-u)
1/8 = (1) / (6-u)
1* (6-u) = 1*8
6-u = 8
u = 6-8
u = -2

Equation at the end of step1: (7x + 18) (4) - 4x = 0 2 STEP2:Equation at the end of step 2 2 • (7x + 18) - 4x = 0 STEP3:STEP4:Pulling out like terms
4.1 Pull out like factors :
10x + 36 = 2 • (5x + 18)
Equation at the end of step4: 2 • (5x + 18) = 0 STEP5:Equations which are never true:
5.1 Solve : 2 = 0
This equation has no solution.
A a non-zero constant never equals zero.
Solving a Single Variable Equation:
5.2 Solve : 5x+18 = 0
Subtract 18 from both sides of the equation :
5x = -18
Divide both sides of the equation by 5:
x = -18/5 = -3.600
-2y + 6 < 10
Subtract 6 on both sides
-2y < 10
Divide by -2 on both sides
y > -5
Hope this helps! Just in case you don’t understand the final answer, when dividing or multiplying by a negative number you flip the sign!
