Without graphing, to find the minimum value, you need to look at the terms and see which one(s) can change. You know that is a constant, so that one won't change. You can see that the first term involves a factor of that includes a square. You know that the minimum a squared value can be is 0 (A squared value is always going to be positive or 0).
So the minimum value occurs when the first term is 0.
So what value of x makes
When x = -12.68, then
