Solving a Quadratic Equation: Finding the Minimum

Homework Statement

Online homework form for f(x) = (x^2 - 17x + 7)/18, with blank answer boxes for the graph type, the minimum value point and value, and the maximum on [-7, 17]; also g defined by stretching f by 36, shifting up 51 and left 5, with a box for g(x).

The Attempt at a Solution

Looks like the graph would be a parabola?
And since it's a>0 it would be upward and therefore a minimum. Not sure what that would be. Unsure how to solve the rest[/B]
