Solving for variable 'u'.

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

Divide each side by '5'.
-1 + -5.8u + u2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '1' to each side of the equation.
-1 + -5.8u + 1 + u2 = 0 + 1

Reorder the terms:
-1 + 1 + -5.8u + u2 = 0 + 1

Combine like terms: -1 + 1 = 0
0 + -5.8u + u2 = 0 + 1
-5.8u + u2 = 0 + 1

Combine like terms: 0 + 1 = 1
-5.8u + u2 = 1

The u term is -5.8u.  Take half its coefficient (-2.9).
Square it (8.41) and add it to both sides.

Add '8.41' to each side of the equation.
-5.8u + 8.41 + u2 = 1 + 8.41

Reorder the terms:
8.41 + -5.8u + u2 = 1 + 8.41

Combine like terms: 1 + 8.41 = 9.41
8.41 + -5.8u + u2 = 9.41

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(u + -2.9)(u + -2.9) = 9.41
