In the equation

y = x² + 5x + 7,

match each leading coefficient with its correct letter

• a = 0, b = 5, c = 7

• a = 1, b = 5, c = 7

• a = 7, b = 5, c = 1

In the equation

3x² + 13 = 7x

identify a, b, and C

• a = 3, b = 13, c = 7

• a = 3, b = 13, c = -7

• a = 3, b = -7, c = 13

• a = 3, b = 7, c = 13

In the equation

-5x² + 4x - 7 = 12x - 3

identify a, b, and C

• a = -5, b = -8, c = -4

• a = 5, b = -8, c = -4

• a = -5, b = 16, c = -4

• a = -5, b = 16, c = -10
