Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-6' to each side of the equation.
6 + 9u + -6 + u2 = 0 + -6

Reorder the terms:
6 + -6 + 9u + u2 = 0 + -6

Combine like terms: 6 + -6 = 0
0 + 9u + u2 = 0 + -6
9u + u2 = 0 + -6

Combine like terms: 0 + -6 = -6
9u + u2 = -6

The u term is 9u.  Take half its coefficient (4.5).
Square it (20.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '20.25' to each side of the equation.
9u + 20.25 + u2 = -6 + 20.25

Reorder the terms:
20.25 + 9u + u2 = -6 + 20.25

Combine like terms: -6 + 20.25 = 14.25
20.25 + 9u + u2 = 14.25
