If a Quadratic Equation has only 1 solulu.
D = 0.
i.e. b^2 - 4ac = 0
Thus, n = sqrt(60). OPTION E.

Since I didn't knew the formula \(b^2\)-4ac=0,

I used simple substitution method

(A)
[ltr]48 ̅ ̅ ̅√48=4\sqrt{}3
Applying in equation
3x^2+4\sqrt{}3\sqrt{}x+5
Cannot becone (A+B)\(^2\) model.
[/ltr]
Similarly for all. Only E satisfied.


(E)
[ltr]60 ̅ ̅ ̅√= 2\sqrt{}3\sqrt{}5
3x^2+2\sqrt{}3\sqrt{}5+5 is (\sqrt{}3x=\sqrt{}5)^2[/ltr]
