First, let's combine all like terms. We get

y=5x26x+10

 

Now, the equation for the x value of the vertex is

x=b2a for quadratics in the form of ax2+bx+c

 

Thus, we have x=(6)2(5)=610

 

Plugging in x into the equation for y, we have 

y=595

 

Thus the vertex is (35,595)

 

So our answer is (35,595)

 

Thanks! :)
