Solution for (u+1)(u-8)=0 equation:


Simplifying
(u + 1)(u + -8) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(1 + u)(u + -8) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(1 + u)(-8 + u) = 0

Multiply (1 + u) * (-8 + u)
(1(-8 + u) + u(-8 + u)) = 0
((-8 * 1 + u * 1) + u(-8 + u)) = 0
((-8 + 1u) + u(-8 + u)) = 0
(-8 + 1u + (-8 * u + u * u)) = 0
(-8 + 1u + (-8u + u2)) = 0

Combine like terms: 1u + -8u = -7u
(-8 + -7u + u2) = 0

Solving
-8 + -7u + u2 = 0

Solving for variable 'u'.

Factor a trinomial.
(-1 + -1u)(8 + -1u) = 0

Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(-1 + -1u)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying -1 + -1u = 0 Solving -1 + -1u = 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 + -1u = 0 + 1 Combine like terms: -1 + 1 = 0 0 + -1u = 0 + 1 -1u = 0 + 1 Combine like terms: 0 + 1 = 1 -1u = 1 Divide each side by '-1'. u = -1 Simplifying u = -1

Subproblem 2

Set the factor '(8 + -1u)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 8 + -1u = 0 Solving 8 + -1u = 0 Move all terms containing u to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-8' to each side of the equation. 8 + -8 + -1u = 0 + -8 Combine like terms: 8 + -8 = 0 0 + -1u = 0 + -8 -1u = 0 + -8 Combine like terms: 0 + -8 = -8 -1u = -8 Divide each side by '-1'. u = 8 Simplifying u = 8

Solution

u = {-1, 8}
