Given the two functions below, which one has the greater maximum value? f(x)=−1/2(x+3)^2−5

A. Given the two functions below, which one has the greater maximum value? f(x)=−12(x+3)2−5
B. f(x) has the greater maximum value because its maximum is −1/2 and the maximum of g(x) is -2
C. g(x) has the greater maximum value because its maximum is 3 and the maximum of f(x) is -3
D. g(x) has the greater maximum value because its maximum is -1 and the maximum of f(x) is -5
