What is the greatest possible value of d if
d=12-(c+4)^2
a.-4
b.0
c.8
d.12
e.28
qa is d because (c+4)^2 is always positive and the d can only be 12 at the most. This is the logical answer that comes from the back of the book. However, is there another way to answer this? I tried backsolving and this really is not a good question to do that with.
