how to solve this quadratic equation for Max & Min values:
A1*x1^2 + B1*x1*x2 + C1*x2^2 + D1*x1 + E1*x2 + F1
can't find a proper explanation. Please!

If A1 is negative, then for every finite x2, the mininum is at x1 = +/- infinity.
If C1 is negative, then for every finite x1, the minimum is at x2 = +/- infinity.
Otherwise, for every finite x1 and finite x2, the minimum is at
x1 = (B1*E1-2*C1*D1)/(-B1^2+4*C1*A1)
x2 = -(2*A1*E1-D1*B1)/(-B1^2+4*C1*A1)
If A1 and C1 are opposite signs, then when x1 and x2 are both infinite, the minimum is undefined.

What values do you have for x1min, x1max, x2min, x2max, and delta? You might be in a situation where one of x1min:delta:x1max or x2min:delta:x2max are empty, in which case Z would come out empty.
Also, what are z1 and z2 ?
