Write an equation of a quadratic function given the vertex and another point on the graph.
Vertex: (–5, –10)
Point: (0, 15)
Vertex form of a quadratic equation: 
 ------ Substituting (0, 15) for (x, y), and (- 5, - 10) for (h, k)
15 = 25a - 10
15 + 10 = 25a
 ------ Substituting 1 for a, and (- 5, - 10) for (h, k)
