Answer:
(2,-17) should be the minimum.
Step-by-step explanation:
The minimum of a quadratic function occurs at 
. If a is positive, the minimum value of the function is 
occurs at
Find the value of
x = 2
evaluate f(2).
replace the variable x with 2 in the expression.
simplify the result.
The final answer is -17
Use the x and y values to find where the minimum occurs.
HOPE THIS HELPS!
