Answer

$(25,-20)$

Work Step by Step

The standard form of the given quadratic function, $f(x)= -x^2+10x+5 ,$ is \begin{array}{l}\require{cancel} f(x)=\left( -x^2+10x \right)+5 \\\\ f(x)=-\left( x^2-10x \right)+5 \\\\ f(x)=-\left( x^2-10x+\left( \dfrac{-10}{2} \right)^2 \right)+5-\left( \dfrac{-10}{2} \right)^2 \\\\ f(x)=-\left( x^2-10x+25 \right)+5-25 \\\\ f(x)=-\left( x-25 \right)^2-20 .\end{array} Since the vertex of $f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k$ is at $(h,k)$, then the vertex of the equation above is \begin{array}{l}\require{cancel} (25,-20) .\end{array}
