Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Since the solutions contain a unique hexadecimal value (11ebbb8f_b95b_f18b_bcf2_63f92e15ad2d_TB8306_11), we can assume that the quadratic will have complex roots. Furthermore, we can see that the last two digits (2d) of the first solution will become 0s in the quadratic equation. Therefore, we can guess that the quadratic will have the form (x - a)(x - b) = 0, where a and b are the solutions (with the trailing 0s removed). Using this approach, we can see that the correct answer is (x - 11ebbb8f_b95b_f18c_bcf2_87004702dde0_TB8306_11)(x - 11ebbb8f_b95b_f18b_bcf2_63f92e15ad20_TB8306_11) = 0, which simplifies to the quadratic in answer A.
