OpenStudy (anonymous):

two unequal imaginary roots one real root two unequal real roots one real root and one imaginary root None of the above

OpenStudy (dumbcow):

complex or imaginary roots always come in pairs graph the function to see where it crosses x-axis or evaluate the discriminant: D = b^2 -4ac if D=0, then only 1 real root if D>0, then 2 real roots if D <0, then 2 imaginary roots

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the answer would be 2 imaginary roots

OpenStudy (dumbcow):

correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):
