The quadratic function is .

For this function a = 6, 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 = 6 and b = 3)

.

The y-coordinate of the vertex by evaluating the function for = .
