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

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

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

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

Multiply (5 + u) * (-1 + 5u)
(5(-1 + 5u) + u(-1 + 5u)) = 0
((-1 * 5 + 5u * 5) + u(-1 + 5u)) = 0
((-5 + 25u) + u(-1 + 5u)) = 0
(-5 + 25u + (-1 * u + 5u * u)) = 0
(-5 + 25u + (-1u + 5u2)) = 0

Combine like terms: 25u + -1u = 24u
(-5 + 24u + 5u2) = 0

Solving
-5 + 24u + 5u2 = 0

Solving for variable 'u'.

Factor a trinomial.

Simplifying
1 + -5u = 0

Solving
1 + -5u = 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 + -5u = 0 + -1

Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0
0 + -5u = 0 + -1
-5u = 0 + -1

Combine like terms: 0 + -1 = -1
-5u = -1

Divide each side by '-5'.
u = 0.2

Simplifying
u = 0.2
Solution
u = {-5, 0.2}
