Answer

Please see the graph. Vertex: $(0, 5)$ x-intercepts: -1, 1 y-intercepts: 5

Work Step by Step

$f(x)=-5x^2+5$ $a=-5$, $b=0$, $c=5$ $x=-b/2a$ is the vertex. $x=-b/2a$ $x=-0/2*-5$ $x=-0/-10$ $x=0$ $f(x)=-5x^2+5$ $f(0)=-5*0^2+5$ $f(0)=-5*0+5$ $f(0)=0+5$ $f(0)=5$ $y=0$ $f(x)=-5x^2+5$ $0=-5x^2+5$ $0=-5(x^2-1)$ $0/-5=-5(x^2-1)/-5$ $0=x^2-1$ $0=(x+1)(x-1)$ $x+1=0$ $x+1-1=0-1$ $x=-1$ $x-1=0$ $x-1+1=0+1$ $x=1$
