Z=U_{(1)}=\min\{U_1,\ldots,U_n\}

has CDF

F_Z(z)=1-(1-F_{U_i}(z))^n

where F_{U_i}(u_i) is the CDF of U_i. Since U_i are iid. with the standard uniform distribution, we have

F_{U_i}(u_i)=\begin{cases}0&\text{for }u_i

and so

F_Z(z)=1-(1-F_{U_i}(z))^n=\begin{cases}0&\text{for }z

Differentiate the CDF with respect to z to obtain the PDF:

f_Z(z)=\dfrac{\mathrm dF_Z(z)}{\mathrm dz}=\begin{cases}n(1-z)^{n-1}&\text{for }0

i.e. Z has a Beta distribution \beta(1,n).

Given the function f(x) = (x + 1)^2 - 3, we recognize that because of the x^2 factor we have a parabola that opens up.  Its vertex is (-1, -3), which I have swiped from the given equation.  The axis of symm is x= -1.
