(9) Let vector \(\displaystyle \, \overrightarrow{a}\, =\, (2,\, 3)\,\) and \(\displaystyle \, \overrightarrow{b}\, =\, (-1,\, 4).\,\) When \(\displaystyle \, \overrightarrow{x}\, -\, \overrightarrow{a}\, =\, \overrightarrow{b}\, -\, \overrightarrow{x},\,\) then \(\displaystyle \, \overrightarrow{x}\, =\, \boxed{\left(\dfrac{1}{2},\, \dfrac{7}{2}\right)}\)

(10) Let \(\displaystyle \, f(x)\, =\, -x^3\, +\, 6x^2\, -\, 9x\, +\, 1.\)

(i) The derivative \(\displaystyle \, f'(x)\, =\, \boxed{-3x^2\, +\, 12\, -\, 1}\)

(ii) Under \(\displaystyle \, 0\, \leq\, x\, \leq\, 3,\, \) the minimum value of \(\displaystyle \, f(x)\, \) is: _________

2: There is a parabola \(\displaystyle \, A\, :\, y\, =\, x^2\, -\, 4x\, -\, 5.\)

(1) The coordinate of the vertex of the parabola A is.....



In (ii) I don't know how to find the minimum value of f(x). Please help me.
(In the box, it is answer)

What have you learned about derivatives and their relation to max/min points? What do you know about finding the x-intercepts (that is, the zeroes) of quadratics? ;)
 
Since the domain is restricted, there could be global max/min at the end points.
