Answer 4

well find y's maximum and see what the x is then plug that in the for x in the equation

Answer 5

Well, I graphed Function #2 and it's parabola reached a lower number, which is why I believe that Function #1 has a higher maximum.

if u look at the equation -x*2 and 2x cancel each other out for example -8+8=0 so it is always -15 for the y coordinate in the equation
