4(u-1)=4u+6-2(-5u-1)

Solution for 4(u-1)=4u+6-2(-5u-1) equation:

Simplifying
4(u + -1) = 4u + 6 + -2(-5u + -1)

Reorder the terms:
4(-1 + u) = 4u + 6 + -2(-5u + -1)
(-1 * 4 + u * 4) = 4u + 6 + -2(-5u + -1)
(-4 + 4u) = 4u + 6 + -2(-5u + -1)

Reorder the terms:
-4 + 4u = 4u + 6 + -2(-1 + -5u)
-4 + 4u = 4u + 6 + (-1 * -2 + -5u * -2)
-4 + 4u = 4u + 6 + (2 + 10u)

Reorder the terms:
-4 + 4u = 6 + 2 + 4u + 10u

Combine like terms: 6 + 2 = 8
-4 + 4u = 8 + 4u + 10u

Combine like terms: 4u + 10u = 14u
-4 + 4u = 8 + 14u

Solving
-4 + 4u = 8 + 14u

Solving for variable 'u'.

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

Add '-14u' to each side of the equation.
-4 + 4u + -14u = 8 + 14u + -14u

Combine like terms: 4u + -14u = -10u
-4 + -10u = 8 + 14u + -14u

Combine like terms: 14u + -14u = 0
-4 + -10u = 8 + 0
-4 + -10u = 8

Add '4' to each side of the equation.
-4 + 4 + -10u = 8 + 4

Combine like terms: -4 + 4 = 0
0 + -10u = 8 + 4
-10u = 8 + 4

Combine like terms: 8 + 4 = 12
-10u = 12

Divide each side by '-10'.
u = -1.2

Simplifying
u = -1.2
