I'm assuming that you are not in Calculus, so I will do this algebraically.
y - 2 = -x^2 + 8x
y - 2 = -1(x^2 - 8x)
y - 2 + ? = -1 (x^2 - 8x + 16) (-8/2)^2 = 16
y - 2 - 16 = -1(x-4)^2 distributed -1*16 to get -16 on left side
y - 18 = -1(x-4)^2
The vertex is (4,18) and the parabola is opening downward since the x^2 term is negative, so 18 is a maximum and E is your answer.

x = -b/2a = 8/2 = 4
y(4) = -16 + 32 + 2 = 18
a = -1 < 0 , parabola opens down, hence a maximum at vertex(4 , 18)
y(4) = -16 + 32 + 2 = 18
a = -1 < 0 , parabola opens down, hence a maximum at vertex(4 , 18)
