The height of water shooting from a fountain is modeled by the function f(x) = −4x2 + 24x − 29 where x is the distance from the spout in feet. Complete the square to determine the maximum height of the path of the water.

−4(x − 3)2 − 29; The maximum height of the water is 3 feet.
−4(x − 3)2 − 29; The maximum height of the water is 29 feet.
−4(x − 3)2 + 7; The maximum height of the water is 7 feet.
−4(x − 3)2 + 7; The maximum height of the water is 3 feet.
