The question is about types and number of soultions so you must use b^2-4ac which is the experssion under the root in the quadratic formula
so
if
b^2-4ac=0 then there is one real soultion
if
b^2-4ac<0 then there are two imaginary soultions that differ in the sign between them
if
b^2-4ac>0 then there are two real soultions
so a polynomial is written in the form
ax^2+bx+c=0
so a=-4
b=-4
c=-1
so b^2-4ac=16-16=0
so one real soultion is the answer you are looking
type:real
number:1
