Answer: See each part below.

1) A, B, and C are the coefficients in order when it equals 0. Move over the 4 and you have 5, 9, -4 or Choice B.

3) If you graph the equation, it will be above the x-axis. Therefore, it has no roots. Choice D

4) Choice A is correct. Use the coefficients: A = 4, B = 3, C = -10. Simply plug those into the quadratic equation and you will get -2 and 1.25.
