(2-u)(3u+1)=0

Solution for (2-u)(3u+1)=0 equation:

Simplifying
(2 + -1u)(3u + 1) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(2 + -1u)(1 + 3u) = 0

Multiply (2 + -1u) * (1 + 3u)
(2(1 + 3u) + -1u * (1 + 3u)) = 0
((1 * 2 + 3u * 2) + -1u * (1 + 3u)) = 0
((2 + 6u) + -1u * (1 + 3u)) = 0
(2 + 6u + (1 * -1u + 3u * -1u)) = 0
(2 + 6u + (-1u + -3u2)) = 0

Combine like terms: 6u + -1u = 5u
(2 + 5u + -3u2) = 0

Solving
2 + 5u + -3u2 = 0

Solving for variable 'u'.

Solving
1 + 3u = 0

Move all terms containing u to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-1' to each side of the equation.
1 + -1 + 3u = 0 + -1

Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0
0 + 3u = 0 + -1
3u = 0 + -1

Combine like terms: 0 + -1 = -1
3u = -1

Divide each side by '3'.
u = -0.3333333333

Simplifying
u = -0.3333333333
Solution
u = {2, -0.3333333333}
