identify the conic section if it is a parabola give the vertex if it is a circle give the center and radius if it is a ellipse or a hyperbola give the center and foci
y^2-3x+10y+37=0
----
3x = y^2+10y+37
---
x = (1/3)(y^2+10y+37)
-----
Vertex occurs when y = -b/(2a) = -(10/3)/(2(1/3)) = -5
Then x = (1/3)(25-50+37) = (1/3)(12) = 4
--------------
Vertex (4,-5)
