IMHO the answer is A.
According to
https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/ios/iproute_eigrp/command/reference/ire_book/ire_i1.html
we have:
“If k5 equals 0, the composite EIGRP metric is computed according to the following formula:

metric = [k1 * bandwidth + (k2 * bandwidth)/(256 – load) + k3 * delay]

If k5 does not equal zero, an additional operation is performed:

metric = metric * [k5/(reliability + k4)]”

In our case K5=0 so the first formula only applies. It does not involve K4, so the modified value of 1 doesn’t matter. The metric is calculated as by default values (1,0,1,0,0).
Hence C and D are false.
There is nothing about authentication in the output so B is probably false as well.
If both routers show output above, then they have the same AS number and the same K-values, so they will “establish an EIGRP relationship successfully”.
