There are several information's already given in the question. The answer to the question can be easily deduced using those given information's.

From the given question we come to know that
t = -2
Then
n = 1.76t^2 - 13.32t + 41.00
= [1.76 * (-2)^2] - [13.32 * (-2) + 41
= 7.04 - ( - 26.64) + 41
= 7.04 + 26.64 + 41
= 74.68
= 75
From the above deduction, we can conclude that the correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the second option or option "B".
