Question

$$51\times33=14-(8u)$$

Solve for u

$u = -\frac{1669}{8} = -208\frac{5}{8} = -208.625$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Multiply $51$ and $33$ to get $1683$.

$$1683=14-8u$$

Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.

$$14-8u=1683$$

Subtract $14$ from both sides.

$$-8u=1683-14$$

Subtract $14$ from $1683$ to get $1669$.

$$-8u=1669$$

Divide both sides by $-8$.

$$u=\frac{1669}{-8}$$

Fraction $\frac{1669}{-8}$ can be rewritten as $-\frac{1669}{8}$ by extracting the negative sign.

$$u=-\frac{1669}{8}$$
