Answer:

Option B is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

y=4x^2-6x+1

Solving the quadratic equation:

4x^2-6x+1

[tex]x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

a=4, b=-6 and c=1

[tex]x=\frac{-(-6)\pm\sqrt{(-6)^2-4(4)(1)}}{2(4)}\\x=\frac{6\pm\sqrt{36-16}}{8}\\x=\frac{6\pm\sqrt{20}}{8}\\x=\frac{6+\sqrt{20}}{8} \,\,and\,\, x=\frac{6-\sqrt{20}}{8}[/tex]

So, it has 2 solutions,

Option B is correct.
