first distribute 2u to (3u+4) & 3u to (2u+1):
{ 3u(2u) + 4(2u) } + { 2u(3u) + 1(3u) } = ?
then multiply the necessary: (answer will be)
{6u^2 + 8u} + {6u^2 +3u} = ?
since the equation is addition, just remove the brackets:
6u^2 + 8u + 6u^2 +3u = ?
add the numbers with the same exponents of the coefficients: (i will just rewrite them in different way but the same equation for you to see)
6u^2 + 6u^2 + 8u +3u = ?
2u x (3u + 4) + (3u x (2u + 1) = ?
= (6u + 4) + (6u + 1)
= 12u + 5
It can't go further, because u and normal are different units.
The answer is then 12u + 5
Is it one of those things where you replace u with something else? Then let's pretend u=2
Simplified:
(2 x 2) x (3 x 2) + 4 + (3 x 2) x (2 x 2 + 1)
= 4 x 6 + 4 + 6 x 5
= 24 + 10 x 5
= 24 + 50
= 74
This answer will change depending on the value of u.
