Answer:

C. One term has degree 3

Explanation:

The quadratic formula is used to find the zeros of degree 2 polynomials. The coefficient of the linear term does not matter, and the coefficient of the x² term may be anything except 0.

If the degree of the polynomial is 3, the quadratic formula does not apply.
