Ok 
First factor out the first 2 terms as follows:-

y  = 1/2(x^2 - 8x) + 21

Now complete the square on x^2 - 8x:-

y = 1/2[ (x - 4)^2 - 16] + 21

y = 1/2(x - 4)^2 - 8 + 21

y = 1/2(x - 4)^2 + 13   Answer

2x-2 must be zero or greater, since we cannot have a negative quantity under the radical sign (unless we allow for imaginary roots).

Solving 2x-2≥0, we get x-1≥0, or x≥1.  x must be equal to or greater than 1.


16 - 16, so the answer to the 2nd problem is the fourth one:  x=4.
