Answer:

Option B is irrational.

Explanation:

The question on the picture says "Which of the following is an irrational number?".

√84 is irrational because it is not a perfect square.

So, option B is the correct answer to the question pictured.

If you still need them:

A and D are perfect squares so they are rational.

√49 = 7

√16 = 4

1.7 is a real number, so it is rational.
