Answer:

b.  The range only includes numbers greater than or equal to 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

Any square of a number will never lead to a negative number

The range of an equation is it's numerical possibilities for y

Since a square of a negative number never leads to a negative y

The answer is therefore, the range can only be zero and above

(otherwise the roots would be imaginary)
