    C

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The nature of the solutions are determined by the value of the discriminant.

    Given a quadratic equation in standard form ax² + bx + c = 0 : a ≠ 0

    Then the discriminant is Δ = b² - 4ac

    • If b² - 4ac > 0 then 2 real and distinct solutions

    • If b² - 4ac = 0 then solutions are real and equal

    • If b² - 4ac < 0 then solutions are not real, 2 complex conjugate solutions

    Here b² - 4ac = - 6, hence 2 complex conjugate solutions → C
