To determine which quadratic function has a range described by \( y \leq 10.5 \), we need to identify functions that open downward (since a downward-opening parabola has a maximum value).

Let's analyze each of the functions:

1. **\( f(x) = 6(x+4)^2 + 10.5 \)**
This is a quadratic function that opens upward (the coefficient of \( (x+4)^2 \) is positive), so its range is \( y \geq 10.5 \).

2. **\( f(x) = -6(x-10.5)^2 + 4 \)**
This is a downward-opening parabola (the coefficient of \( (x-10.5)^2 \) is negative), and its maximum value is \( 4 \). Therefore, its range is \( y \leq 4 \).

3. **\( f(x) = 10.5(x-4)^2 - 6 \)**
This is another upward-opening parabola, so its range will be \( y \geq -6 \).

4. **\( f(x) = -6(x+4)^2 + 10.5 \)**
This is a downward-opening parabola, and its maximum value is \( 10.5 \). Therefore, its range is \( y \leq 10.5 \).

The function that has a range described by \( y \leq 10.5 \) is:

**\( f(x) = -6(x+4)^2 + 10.5 \)**
