Answer:
[tex]f(x) = {x}^{2} - 2x + 17 \\ completing \: squares \\ divide \: the \: sum \: by \: 2 \: and \: the \: result \: to \: the \: {x}^{2} and \: subtract \: it \: from \: the \: product \\ in \: this \: case. \: our \: sum \: is \: 2 \\ f(x) = ({x}^{2} \times \frac{2}{2} ) + (17 - \frac{2}{2} ) \\ f(x) = {(x + 1)}^{2} + (17 - 1) \\ f(x) = {(x + 1)}^{2} + 16[/tex]
