I say D but not sure if am right

anonymous · Answer

B ?

anonymous · Answer

first you have to comput the value of  94*94-4*36*64

anonymous · Answer

-380

michele_laino · Answer

hint:
36 is the square of 6
64 is the square of 8
nevertheless
94 is not equal to 2*8*6

anonymous · Answer

because of you found a negative value the right answer is B as my friend told you

anonymous · Answer

just for information the value you compute is  called ''the delta'' and if it s equal to zero that mean that The polynomial may be factored into a perfect square.
