Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
xy = 42
x+y = - 2 Substitute into the top equation
y = -2 - x Put in for y
x(-2 - x) = 42 Remove the brackets
-2x - x^2 = 42 Subtract 42 from both sides.
-2x - x^2 - 42 = 0 Put in the more normal order.
-x^2 - 2x - 42 = 0 Multiply by -1
x^2 + 2x + 42 = 0
This cannot be factored. It gives complex roots as it is written. I will give you the answer but I kind of doubt the question is correct.
x1 = - 1 + 6.40i
x2 = -1 - 6.40i
Leave a comment if you have a correction.
This isn't a math question and should be in the science section. However, I will still answer the question. The answer is choice B.

Here's a further breakdown
A. False. The radiation or energy from the sun can travel through air or else you wouldn't feel the sun's rays. Also, plant life wouldn't be alive without that energy going through the air.
B. True. The rays travel through a vacuum of space. If they couldn't travel through space, then the same problem comes up as in choice A: the issue of not feeling the sun's rays.
C. False. They rays have different frequencies. Because there are many wavelengths (see choice D below), this means there are different frequencies. Recall that f = 1/w where f is the frequency and w is the wavelength.
D. False. The rays are made of different wavelengths. The visible light portion is what we can see, though there is a lot more to the electromagnetic spectrum (eg: ultraviolet light).

So once again, the answer is choice B
