Answer:

y = -3x^2 + 4

Look below for more information

Explanation:

y = 3x^2 - 4

Everything is wrong about this answer. The slope is actually a negative and the y-intercept is suppose to be a positive

y = -3x^2 - 4

Only the y-intercept is wrong here because the graph is going 4 units up instead of 4 units down

y = -3x^2 + 4

This is the correct answer! The slole is negative and the y-intercept is a positive

y = 3x^2 + 4

The slope is wrong but the y-intercept is correct!

Therefore, our answer is the third option: y = -3x^2 + 4
