Answer:

  Minimum at (2, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor the leading coefficient from the first two terms:

  f(x) = 2(x^2 -4x) +6

Inside parentheses, add the square of half the x-coefficient. Add the opposite of that amount outside parentheses.

  f(x) = 2(x^2 -4x +4) +6 -8

Rewrite in vertex form.

  f(x) = 2(x -2)^2 -2

The positive leading coefficient tells you the vertex is a <em>minimum</em>. Comparing this to the vertex form for a quadratic with vertex (h, k)

  f(x) = a(x -h)^2 +k

we find the <em>vertex</em> to be ...

  (h, k) = (2, -2)

The function has a minimum at (2, -2).
