From given graph we see that points forms a parabolic shape that means we can use quadratic model to find the equation whose formula is given by:


y=a(x-h)^2+k

where (h,k) represents vertex.

From graph we see that vertex is (3,49).

Hence h=3 and k=49

Plug these values into above formula

we get:


y=a(x-3)^2+49

Now we need to find the value of a, so we can plug any point say (5,45) then we get:


45=a(5-3)^2+49


45=a(2)^2+49


45=4a+49


45-49=4a


-4=4a


-1=a

Plug value of a, h and k into above formula, we get:


y=-1(x-3)^2+49


y=-1(x^2-6x+9)+49


y=-x^2+6x-9+49


y=-x^2+6x+40


which best matches with first choice

Hence final answer is
R(x)=-x^2+6x+40
