The expression ( x^2 - 4x - 17 ) is a quadratic equation in standard form, where ( a = 1 ), ( b = -4 ), and ( c = -17 ). It can be analyzed for its roots using the quadratic formula, ( x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a} ). This will yield the values of ( x ) for which the expression equals zero. Additionally, the graph of this quadratic will be a parabola opening upwards, with its vertex indicating the minimum point of the function.
