I guess you have f%28x%29=+-2x%5E2%2B9x%2B1, not f%28x%29=+-2x%5E2%2B9%2B1
to find f%28x-6%29 for f%28x%29=+-2x%5E2%2B9x%2B1, substitute x in f%28x%29=+-2x%5E2%2B9%2B1 for %28x-6%29

f%28x-6%29=+-2%28x-6%29%5E2%2B9%28x-6%29%2B1
f%28x-6%29=+-2%28x%5E2-12x%2B36%29%2B9x-54%2B1
f%28x-6%29=+-2x%5E2%2B24x-72%2B9x-53
f%28x-6%29=+-2x%5E2%2B33x-125
answer in a ordered pair:
as you know f%28x-6%29=y,so the rest represents x coordinate
and your ordered pair is:
(-2x%5E2%2B33x-125,f%28x-6%29)
