Solving for variable 'u'.

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

Divide each side by '4'.
-2.25 + 2u + u2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '2.25' to each side of the equation.
-2.25 + 2u + 2.25 + u2 = 0 + 2.25

Reorder the terms:
-2.25 + 2.25 + 2u + u2 = 0 + 2.25

Combine like terms: -2.25 + 2.25 = 0.00
0.00 + 2u + u2 = 0 + 2.25
2u + u2 = 0 + 2.25

Combine like terms: 0 + 2.25 = 2.25
2u + u2 = 2.25

The u term is 2u.  Take half its coefficient (1).
Square it (1) and add it to both sides.

Add '1' to each side of the equation.
2u + 1 + u2 = 2.25 + 1

Reorder the terms:
1 + 2u + u2 = 2.25 + 1

Combine like terms: 2.25 + 1 = 3.25
1 + 2u + u2 = 3.25

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(u + 1)(u + 1) = 3.25

Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.802775638
