40 + 16u + u2 = 0

Solving for variable 'u'.

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-40' to each side of the equation.
40 + 16u + -40 + u2 = 0 + -40

Reorder the terms:
40 + -40 + 16u + u2 = 0 + -40

Combine like terms: 40 + -40 = 0
0 + 16u + u2 = 0 + -40
16u + u2 = 0 + -40

Combine like terms: 0 + -40 = -40
16u + u2 = -40

The u term is 16u.  Take half its coefficient (8).
