Answer:

minimum value of 6

Explanation:

Given

y = x² - 10x + 31

with a = 1, b = - 10

Since a > 0 then the function has a minimum value

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

The x- coordinate of the vertex is

x = -
(b)/(2a) = -
(-10)/(2) = 5

Substitute x = 5 into the function for y- coordinate of vertex

y = 5² - 10(5) + 31 = 25 - 50 + 31 = 6

The function has a minimum value of 6
