document.write( "p(x)=x^2-2x+5 
\n" );
document.write( "Using the vertex form of a parabola,  where(h,k) is the vertex
\n" );
document.write( "completing the square to put into vertex form
\n" );
document.write( "p(x) = (x-1)^2 + 4  vertex Pt(1,4) is a minimum pt, a>0, parabola opens upward
\n" );
document.write( "Although the range of p(x) is p(x)>= 4, the domain x-values are all real numbers
