Solution Steps

To solve for \( u \) in the equation \( 7 + u = -9 \), we need to isolate \( u \) on one side of the equation. This can be done by subtracting 7 from both sides of the equation.

Step 1: Isolate \( u \) in the Equation

To solve the equation \( 7 + u = -9 \), we need to isolate \( u \). This can be done by subtracting 7 from both sides of the equation:

\[ u = -9 - 7 \]

Step 2: Simplify the Expression

Simplify the right side of the equation:

\[ u = -16 \]

Final Answer

The solution to the equation is:

\[ \boxed{u = -16} \]
