(3u+5)(1+u)=0

Solution for (3u+5)(1+u)=0 equation:

Simplifying
(3u + 5)(1 + u) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(5 + 3u)(1 + u) = 0

Multiply (5 + 3u) * (1 + u)
(5(1 + u) + 3u * (1 + u)) = 0
((1 * 5 + u * 5) + 3u * (1 + u)) = 0
((5 + 5u) + 3u * (1 + u)) = 0
(5 + 5u + (1 * 3u + u * 3u)) = 0
(5 + 5u + (3u + 3u2)) = 0

Combine like terms: 5u + 3u = 8u
(5 + 8u + 3u2) = 0

Solving
5 + 8u + 3u2 = 0

Solving for variable 'u'.

Subproblem 2
Set the factor '(1 + u)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
1 + u = 0

Solving
1 + u = 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 + u = 0 + -1

Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0
0 + u = 0 + -1
u = 0 + -1

Combine like terms: 0 + -1 = -1
u = -1

Simplifying
u = -1
Solution
u = {-1.666666667, -1}
