Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-5 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-5'.
-3.6 + 3.8u + u2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '3.6' to each side of the equation.
-3.6 + 3.8u + 3.6 + u2 = 0 + 3.6

Reorder the terms:
-3.6 + 3.6 + 3.8u + u2 = 0 + 3.6

Combine like terms: -3.6 + 3.6 = 0.0
0.0 + 3.8u + u2 = 0 + 3.6
3.8u + u2 = 0 + 3.6

Combine like terms: 0 + 3.6 = 3.6
3.8u + u2 = 3.6

The u term is 3.8u.  Take half its coefficient (1.9).
Square it (3.61) and add it to both sides.

Add '3.61' to each side of the equation.
3.8u + 3.61 + u2 = 3.6 + 3.61

Reorder the terms:
3.61 + 3.8u + u2 = 3.6 + 3.61

Combine like terms: 3.6 + 3.61 = 7.21
3.61 + 3.8u + u2 = 7.21

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(u + 1.9)(u + 1.9) = 7.21
