Answer:

The answer is the last line.

Explanation:

Use the quadratic formula

a = 1

b = -a

c = a^2 - b

x = -b +/- sqrt(b^2 - 4ac)

=================

2a

x = a +/- sqrt(a^2 - 4(1)*(a^2 - b)

========================

2

x = a +/- sqrt(a^2 - 4a^ + 4b)

=====================

2

x = a +/- sqrt(4b - 3a^2)

===================
