Solving
15 + 7u + u2 = 0

Solving for variable 'u'.

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-15' to each side of the equation.
15 + 7u + -15 + u2 = 0 + -15

Reorder the terms:
15 + -15 + 7u + u2 = 0 + -15

Combine like terms: 15 + -15 = 0
0 + 7u + u2 = 0 + -15
7u + u2 = 0 + -15

Combine like terms: 0 + -15 = -15
7u + u2 = -15

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 = -15 + 12.25

Reorder the terms:
12.25 + 7u + u2 = -15 + 12.25

Combine like terms: -15 + 12.25 = -2.75
12.25 + 7u + u2 = -2.75

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(u + 3.5)(u + 3.5) = -2.75

Can't calculate square root of the right side.

The solution to this equation could not be determined.
