You are correct. The discriminant of the quadratic equation is:

b² - 4ac = 1 - 4(-3)(-4) = 49

Since the discriminant is positive, there are real number solutions. However, there are no solutions that satisfy the equation because the quadratic equation has no real roots. Therefore, the answer is A. 0.
