    c. r^2 - 4qs

    Step-by-step explanation:

    When compared to the standard quadratic ...

    ax^2 + bx + c = 0

    we find that your quadratic has ...

    a = q, b = r, c = s

    Substituting these into the formula for the discriminant, we get ...

    d = b^2 - 4ac = r^2 - 4qs

    The discriminant is r^2 - 4qs.
