-2(u-1)=2u-6+2(7u+3)

Solution for -2(u-1)=2u-6+2(7u+3) equation:

Simplifying
-2(u + -1) = 2u + -6 + 2(7u + 3)

Reorder the terms:
-2(-1 + u) = 2u + -6 + 2(7u + 3)
(-1 * -2 + u * -2) = 2u + -6 + 2(7u + 3)
(2 + -2u) = 2u + -6 + 2(7u + 3)

Reorder the terms:
2 + -2u = 2u + -6 + 2(3 + 7u)
2 + -2u = 2u + -6 + (3 * 2 + 7u * 2)
2 + -2u = 2u + -6 + (6 + 14u)

Reorder the terms:
2 + -2u = -6 + 6 + 2u + 14u

Combine like terms: -6 + 6 = 0
2 + -2u = 0 + 2u + 14u
2 + -2u = 2u + 14u

Combine like terms: 2u + 14u = 16u
2 + -2u = 16u

Solving
2 + -2u = 16u

Solving for variable 'u'.

Move all terms containing u to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-16u' to each side of the equation.
2 + -2u + -16u = 16u + -16u

Combine like terms: -2u + -16u = -18u
2 + -18u = 16u + -16u

Combine like terms: 16u + -16u = 0
2 + -18u = 0

Add '-2' to each side of the equation.
2 + -2 + -18u = 0 + -2

Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0
0 + -18u = 0 + -2
-18u = 0 + -2

Combine like terms: 0 + -2 = -2
-18u = -2

Divide each side by '-18'.
u = 0.1111111111

Simplifying
u = 0.1111111111
