Solving for variable 'u'.

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

Divide each side by '4'.
-1 + -0.75u + u2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '1' to each side of the equation.
-1 + -0.75u + 1 + u2 = 0 + 1

Reorder the terms:
-1 + 1 + -0.75u + u2 = 0 + 1

Combine like terms: -1 + 1 = 0
0 + -0.75u + u2 = 0 + 1
-0.75u + u2 = 0 + 1

Combine like terms: 0 + 1 = 1
-0.75u + u2 = 1

The u term is -0.75u.  Take half its coefficient (-0.375).
Square it (0.140625) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.140625' to each side of the equation.
-0.75u + 0.140625 + u2 = 1 + 0.140625

Reorder the terms:
0.140625 + -0.75u + u2 = 1 + 0.140625

Combine like terms: 1 + 0.140625 = 1.140625
0.140625 + -0.75u + u2 = 1.140625

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(u + -0.375)(u + -0.375) = 1.140625

Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.068000468

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(u + -0.375) equal to 1.068000468 and -1.068000468.

Subproblem 1

u + -0.375 = 1.068000468 Simplifying u + -0.375 = 1.068000468 Reorder the terms: -0.375 + u = 1.068000468 Solving -0.375 + u = 1.068000468 Solving for variable 'u'. Move all terms containing u to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '0.375' to each side of the equation. -0.375 + 0.375 + u = 1.068000468 + 0.375 Combine like terms: -0.375 + 0.375 = 0.000 0.000 + u = 1.068000468 + 0.375 u = 1.068000468 + 0.375 Combine like terms: 1.068000468 + 0.375 = 1.443000468 u = 1.443000468 Simplifying u = 1.443000468

Subproblem 2

u + -0.375 = -1.068000468 Simplifying u + -0.375 = -1.068000468 Reorder the terms: -0.375 + u = -1.068000468 Solving -0.375 + u = -1.068000468 Solving for variable 'u'. Move all terms containing u to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '0.375' to each side of the equation. -0.375 + 0.375 + u = -1.068000468 + 0.375 Combine like terms: -0.375 + 0.375 = 0.000 0.000 + u = -1.068000468 + 0.375 u = -1.068000468 + 0.375 Combine like terms: -1.068000468 + 0.375 = -0.693000468 u = -0.693000468 Simplifying u = -0.693000468
