Answer:
minimum value = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a parabola in vertex form is
y = a(x - h)² + k
where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier
To obtain this form using completing the square
add/subtract ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to x² - 6x
f(x) = x² + 2(- 3)x + 9 - 9 + 19
= (x - 3)² + 10 ← in vertex form
with (h, k) = (3, 10 )
To determine maximum or minimum consider the value of a
• If a > 0 then minimum value of k
• If a < 0 then maximum value of k
Here a = 1 > 0, hence minimum value of k = 10
