The quadratic function is .

For this function a = 1 , so the graph opens up and the function has a minimum value. \ \

The minimum value of the function is the y-coordinate of the vertex.

The - coordinate of the vertex is .

               (Substitute the values a = 1 and b = 3)

        (Simplify) \ \ The y-coordinate of the vertex by evaluating the function for = . \ \

           (Original function)

       ( =  )

               (Simplify)

or
