Solve pls brainliest
Goshia [24]

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!
