(6+u)(2u-7)=0

Solution for (6+u)(2u-7)=0 equation:

Simplifying
(6 + u)(2u + -7) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(6 + u)(-7 + 2u) = 0

Multiply (6 + u) * (-7 + 2u)
(6(-7 + 2u) + u(-7 + 2u)) = 0
((-7 * 6 + 2u * 6) + u(-7 + 2u)) = 0
((-42 + 12u) + u(-7 + 2u)) = 0
(-42 + 12u + (-7 * u + 2u * u)) = 0
(-42 + 12u + (-7u + 2u2)) = 0

Combine like terms: 12u + -7u = 5u
(-42 + 5u + 2u2) = 0

Solving
-42 + 5u + 2u2 = 0

Solving for variable 'u'.
