Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '33' to each side of the equation.
-33 + u + 33 + u2 = 0 + 33

Reorder the terms:
-33 + 33 + u + u2 = 0 + 33

Combine like terms: -33 + 33 = 0
0 + u + u2 = 0 + 33
u + u2 = 0 + 33

Combine like terms: 0 + 33 = 33
u + u2 = 33

The u term is u.  Take half its coefficient (0.5).
Square it (0.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.25' to each side of the equation.
u + 0.25 + u2 = 33 + 0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + u + u2 = 33 + 0.25

Combine like terms: 33 + 0.25 = 33.25
0.25 + u + u2 = 33.25

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(u + 0.5)(u + 0.5) = 33.25

Calculate the square root of the right side: 5.766281297

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(u + 0.5) equal to 5.766281297 and -5.766281297.

Subproblem 1

u + 0.5 = 5.766281297 Simplifying u + 0.5 = 5.766281297 Reorder the terms: 0.5 + u = 5.766281297 Solving 0.5 + u = 5.766281297 Solving for variable 'u'. Move all terms containing u to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-0.5' to each side of the equation. 0.5 + -0.5 + u = 5.766281297 + -0.5 Combine like terms: 0.5 + -0.5 = 0.0 0.0 + u = 5.766281297 + -0.5 u = 5.766281297 + -0.5 Combine like terms: 5.766281297 + -0.5 = 5.266281297 u = 5.266281297 Simplifying u = 5.266281297

Subproblem 2

u + 0.5 = -5.766281297 Simplifying u + 0.5 = -5.766281297 Reorder the terms: 0.5 + u = -5.766281297 Solving 0.5 + u = -5.766281297 Solving for variable 'u'. Move all terms containing u to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-0.5' to each side of the equation. 0.5 + -0.5 + u = -5.766281297 + -0.5 Combine like terms: 0.5 + -0.5 = 0.0 0.0 + u = -5.766281297 + -0.5 u = -5.766281297 + -0.5 Combine like terms: -5.766281297 + -0.5 = -6.266281297 u = -6.266281297 Simplifying u = -6.266281297
