One other way to solve this question is finding the derivative

h=-2x^2+12x-10

h'=-4x+12

now we have to find when this function will be zero

-4x+12=0

\boxed{\boxed{x=3}}

now we just replace this value at our initial function

h=-2x^2+12x-10

h_{max}=-2*(3)^2+12*3-10

h_{max}=-18+36-10

\boxed{\boxed{h_{max}=8}}

The maximum height is the ordinate value of the vertex of the parabola, ie: yV

Calculating yV:

y_V=\frac{-\Delta}{4a}\\
\\
y_V=-[\frac{12^2-4*(-2)*(-10)]}{4*(-2)}=\frac{-(144-80)}{-8}=\frac{-64}{-8}=8

The answer would be

y = 4x -14


y +2 = 4(x-3)

y+2 = 4x -12

y  = 4x -12 -2

y  = 4x -14    (slope intercept form)
