Answer:

a

Explanation:

Negative discriminant means that the fucntion has no real roots

so in the quadratic function b^2-4ac if this section is negative there are no real roots, so yes a would be the answer

Bonus: if u want to know.

However, in linear algebra which ofc i know ur not taking there would be something called imangiary roots, or complex roots.
