Value of y , you mean Range of function.
For f(x) = -5^x + 2
as you know, 5^x is exponential function
it lies between 0 to ∞ .
e.g., 0 < 5^x < ∞
⇒ - ∞ < -5^x < 0
⇒ -∞ < -5^x + 2 < 2
∴Range of F(x) ∈ (-∞ , 2)

For f(x) = -5x² + 2
For any quadratic equation , ax² + bx + c ≥ -D/4a , if a > 0
And if a < 0 then, ax² + bx + c ≤ -D/4a

Here, D = 0 - 4(-5)(2) = 40
so, -5x² + 2 ≤ -40/4(-5) = 2
⇒ 5x² + 2 ≤ 2
Hence, Range ∈ (-∞, 2]
