Solution for (2-u)(4u-1)=0 equation:


Simplifying
(2 + -1u)(4u + -1) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(2 + -1u)(-1 + 4u) = 0

Multiply (2 + -1u) * (-1 + 4u)
(2(-1 + 4u) + -1u * (-1 + 4u)) = 0
((-1 * 2 + 4u * 2) + -1u * (-1 + 4u)) = 0
((-2 + 8u) + -1u * (-1 + 4u)) = 0
(-2 + 8u + (-1 * -1u + 4u * -1u)) = 0
(-2 + 8u + (1u + -4u2)) = 0

Combine like terms: 8u + 1u = 9u
(-2 + 9u + -4u2) = 0

Solving
-2 + 9u + -4u2 = 0

Solving for variable 'u'.

Factor a trinomial.
