(1+u)(5u-9)=0

Solution for (1+u)(5u-9)=0 equation:

Simplifying
(1 + u)(5u + -9) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(1 + u)(-9 + 5u) = 0

Multiply (1 + u) * (-9 + 5u)
(1(-9 + 5u) + u(-9 + 5u)) = 0
((-9 * 1 + 5u * 1) + u(-9 + 5u)) = 0
((-9 + 5u) + u(-9 + 5u)) = 0
(-9 + 5u + (-9 * u + 5u * u)) = 0
(-9 + 5u + (-9u + 5u2)) = 0

Combine like terms: 5u + -9u = -4u
(-9 + -4u + 5u2) = 0

Solving
-9 + -4u + 5u2 = 0

Solving for variable 'u'.

9 + -9 + -5u = 0 + -9

Combine like terms: 9 + -9 = 0
0 + -5u = 0 + -9
-5u = 0 + -9

Combine like terms: 0 + -9 = -9
-5u = -9

Divide each side by '-5'.
u = 1.8

Simplifying
u = 1.8
Solution
u = {-1, 1.8}
