So, if you graphed y = -x^2 +4x - 6, you'll get a parabola with a solid line. All the points of the function lie on the parabola. y > -x^2 + 4x - 6 means that everything above the curve, not including the curve, is "shaded in"

So, one way to evaluate the given function at the each x-value in your choices. If the y-coordinate of the choices is greater than the value of the function, that will satisfy the inequality.
