ASAP!! Please help me. I will not accept nonsense answers, but will mark as BRAINLIEST if you answer is correctly with solutions.

h(x) = -15.6(x - 3.8)² + 241

Step-by-step explanation:

if you were to graph these equations, you can see that the second equation has a lower maximum than the rest of equations, including the original. therefore, that answer can be eliminated.

or simply recognize the equation is in vertex form and realize that 222 is the y-value of the vertex. and 222 < 230. (230 being the y-value of the parent function's vertex)

the a-value (-15.9 for the parent/original function) of the new equation must be less than the parent function's a-value. this is the rate at which the pumpkin is decreasing. the lower the value, the slower the pumpkin moves. this is an advantage, as the length it travels increases. therefore, the third and fourth options are eliminated, leaving the first option as the answer.

your answer is
