Solution for 3u+(u-2)=10findu equation:

Simplifying
3u + (u + -2) = 10findu

Reorder the terms:
3u + (-2 + u) = 10findu

Remove parenthesis around (-2 + u)
3u + -2 + u = 10findu

Reorder the terms:
-2 + 3u + u = 10findu

Combine like terms: 3u + u = 4u
-2 + 4u = 10findu

Solving
-2 + 4u = 10dfinu

Solving for variable 'u'.

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

Add '-10dfinu' to each side of the equation.
-2 + -10dfinu + 4u = 10dfinu + -10dfinu

Combine like terms: 10dfinu + -10dfinu = 0
-2 + -10dfinu + 4u = 0

Add '2' to each side of the equation.
-2 + -10dfinu + 2 + 4u = 0 + 2

Reorder the terms:
-2 + 2 + -10dfinu + 4u = 0 + 2

Combine like terms: -2 + 2 = 0
0 + -10dfinu + 4u = 0 + 2
-10dfinu + 4u = 0 + 2

Combine like terms: 0 + 2 = 2
-10dfinu + 4u = 2

Reorder the terms:
-2 + -10dfinu + 4u = 2 + -2

Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0
-2 + -10dfinu + 4u = 0

Factor out the Greatest Common Factor (GCF), '2'.
2(-1 + -5dfinu + 2u) = 0

Ignore the factor 2.
Subproblem 1
Set the factor '(-1 + -5dfinu + 2u)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
-1 + -5dfinu + 2u = 0

Solving
-1 + -5dfinu + 2u = 0
