Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-1 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-1'.
3 + -7u + u2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-3' to each side of the equation.
3 + -7u + -3 + u2 = 0 + -3

Reorder the terms:
3 + -3 + -7u + u2 = 0 + -3

Combine like terms: 3 + -3 = 0
0 + -7u + u2 = 0 + -3
-7u + u2 = 0 + -3

Combine like terms: 0 + -3 = -3
-7u + u2 = -3

The u term is -7u.  Take half its coefficient (-3.5).
Square it (12.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '12.25' to each side of the equation.
-7u + 12.25 + u2 = -3 + 12.25

Reorder the terms:
12.25 + -7u + u2 = -3 + 12.25
