Question

What do you do after the distributive property and it comes out like this: 6u - 15 = -4u + -16?

Answer 1

Answer:

u=-1/10

Step-by-step explanation:

6u+4u=-16+15

10u=-1

u=-1/10

Answer 2

Answer:

$\Large\boxed{U=-\frac{1}{10}=-0.1 }$

Step-by-step explanation:

GIVEN:

$\Large\boxed{\textnormal{SUBJECT: MATH}}}$

$\Large\boxed{\textnormal{LESSON: ADD AND SUBTRACT EXPRESSIONS}}}$

$\Large\boxed{\textnormal{LESSON: DISTRIBUTIVE PROPERTY}}}$

To solve this problem, first you have to use distributive property from left to right numbers.

Isolate by the u from one side of the equation.

SOLUTIONS:

First, you have to add by 15 from both sides.

$\displaystyle 6u-15+15=-4u-16+15$

Solve.

Subtract.

$\displaystyle 16-15=1$

$\displaystyle 6u=-4u-1$

Secondly, add by 4u from both sides.

$\displaystyle 6u+4u=-4u-1+4u$

Solve.

Add or subtract the numbers from left to right.

$\displaystyle 6+4=10$

$\displaystyle 10u=-1$

Then, you divide by 10 from both sides of an equation.

$\displaystyle \frac{10u}{10}=\frac{-1}{10}$

Solve. (Simplify/ to find the answer!)

$\displaystyle \boxed{U=-\frac{1}{10} }$

Divide the numbers from left to right.

$\displaystyle1\div10=\boxed{0.1}$

$\Large\boxed{U=-\frac{1}{10}=-0.1 }$

In conclusion, the correct answer is u=-1/10-0.1.
