Answer:

A

Explanation:

Hello, I assume that the quadratic function f has real coefficients, so this is something like, a, b and c being real numbers


f(x)=ax^2+bx+c

If a complex number z is a zero of f ( meaning solution of f(x)=0) then


\overline z which is the conjugate of z is a zero too, because


\text{if } f(z)=0=az^2+bz+c \text{ then}\\\\\overline {f(z)}=0=a\overline z ^2 +b \overline z + c\\\\\text{meaning } f(\overline z)=0

Here, we know that
√(7)+5i is a solution, so


\overline {√(7)+5i}= √(7)-5i is a solution too.

Thank you
