Answer:

The correct answer options are,

A: 0

B: There is one real root with a multiplicity of 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Discriminant of a quadratic equation ax² + bx + c = 0 is given by,

b² - 4ac

It is given a quadratic equation 9x² + 24x + 16 = 0

To find the discriminant

Here a = 9, b = 24 and c = 16

Discriminant = b² - 4ac

 = 24² - (4 * 9 * 16)

 = 576 - 576

 = 0

The correct options are

A: 0

B: There is one real root with a multiplicity of 2.
