To solve the equation -36 = -8u + 6(u - 8), you first distribute the 6 to both terms inside the parentheses. This gives you -36 = -8u + 6u - 48. Then, you combine like terms on the right side of the equation. This gives you -36 = -2u - 48. Next, you add 48 to both sides to isolate the variable term. This gives you 12 = -2u. Finally, you divide both sides by -2 to solve for u. This gives you u = -6.
