Formatting Optimization Problems

Put the following lines in the head of your document, i.e. between \documentclass{xxx} and \begin{document}

\newcommand*{\optMinMax}[2]{\underset{\vphantom{A}\displaystyle\mathclap{#1}}%
                           {\text{#2}}\quad}
\newcommand{\optmin}[1]{\optMinMax{#1}{minimize}}
\newcommand{\optmax}[1]{\optMinMax{#1}{maximize}}
\newcommand*{\subject}{\text{subject to}\quad}
\newcommand*{\tagthis}{\stepcounter{equation}\tag{\theequation}}

$text describing image$

\begin{align*}\label{eq:QP}
  \optmin{x}  &\dfrac{1}{2}x^THx + f^Tx \tagthis \\
  \subject    & Ax  \leq b \\
              &A_{\text{eq}}x  = b_{\text{eq}}
\end{align*}
