$user = User::find(1); $user->delete();In this example, we retrieve a user record with an id of 1 using the `find` method, and then call the `delete` method on the retrieved `User` model instance to delete the record from the database. The Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model delete method is part of the Illuminate Database Eloquent package, which is a library for working with relational databases in PHP.
