Rewrite as 5(y^2-5y)=x-60
\n" ); document.write( "Complete the square on the left side to get:
\n" ); document.write( "5(y^2-5y++(5/2)^2)=x-60+5(5/2)^2
\n" ); document.write( "5(y-(5/2))^2=x-115/4
\n" ); document.write( "This is a parabola opening to the right with
\n" ); document.write( "vertex at (115/4,5/2) and p=5/4
