    D = 0

    one real solution

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given equation is:

    4x²+20x+25 = 0

    general quadratic equation is ax²+bx+c = 0

    the formula to find discriminant is:

    D = b²-4ac

    If D = 0 then quadratic equation will have one real solution.

    comparing given equation with general equation, we get

    a = 4, b = 20 and c = 25

    putting above values in formula of discriminant, we get

    D = (20) ²-4 (4) (25)

    D = 400-400

    D = 0

    If D = 0 then quadratic equation will have one real solution.

    hence, given equation have one real solution.
