What is the range of f(x)=-x²+6x-5?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: (-∞,4]

Rewrite the quadratic in vertex form: f(x)=−x²+6x−5=−(x²−6x+9)+4=−(x−3)²+4. Since (x−3)² is always non-negative, its negative is always at most zero. Thus f(x)≤4 for every real x. Equality occurs at x=3, where the square term is zero and f(3)=4, so 4 is included in the range. As |x| becomes arbitrarily large, the negative square term decreases without bound, meaning the function can take values as small as desired. Therefore the range is (−∞,4], which is option A. Option B has the direction suitable for an upward-opening parabola; C confuses the constant term with the maximum, and D incorrectly claims that every real value occurs.
