Subproblem 1
Set the factor '(3 + u)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
3 + u = 0

Solving
3 + u = 0

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

Add '-3' to each side of the equation.
3 + -3 + u = 0 + -3

Combine like terms: 3 + -3 = 0
0 + u = 0 + -3
u = 0 + -3

Combine like terms: 0 + -3 = -3
u = -3

Simplifying
u = -3
Subproblem 2
Set the factor '(1 + 2u)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
1 + 2u = 0

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

Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0
0 + 2u = 0 + -1
2u = 0 + -1

Combine like terms: 0 + -1 = -1
2u = -1

Divide each side by '2'.
u = -0.5

Simplifying
u = -0.5
Solution
u = {-3, -0.5}
