Answer

Vertex: $(3, 2)$ Opens upward x-intercepts: none y-intercept: 11

Work Step by Step

$f(x)=x^2-6x+11$ $y=x^2-6x+11$ $y-2=x^2-6x+11-2$ $y-2=x^2-6x+9$ $y-2=(x-3)^2$ $y-2+2=(x-3)^2+2$ $y=(x-3)^2+2$ Vertex: $(3, 2)$ Opens upward Since the vertex is above the x-axis and the graph opens upward, the graph has no x-intercepts. $x=0$ $f(x)=x^2-6x+11$ $f(0)=0^2-6*0+11$ $f(0)=0-0+11$ $f(0)=11$ x-intercepts: none y-intercept: 11
