Answer

$y=-450(x-6)^2+6$

Work Step by Step

Vertex: $(h,k)=(6,6)$ Standard form: $y=a(x−h)^2+k$ $y=a(x-6)^2+6$ Now, use the point $(\frac{61}{10},\frac{3}{2})$ to find $a$: $\frac{3}{2}=a(\frac{61}{10}-6)^2+6$ $\frac{3}{2}-6=a(\frac{1}{10})^2$ $-\frac{9}{2}=a(\frac{1}{100})$ $a=-\frac{900}{2}=-450$ $y=-450(x-6)^2+6$
