What form should a quadratic equation be in to apply the quadratic formula?

• AX^2 + BX + C = 0

• AX + B = C

• AX^2 = BX + C

• AX^2 + C = BX

After rearranging the equation, what are the values of A, B, and C in the equation 9X^2 + 12X - 3 = 0?

• A = -3, B = 12, C = 9

• A = 12, B = 9, C = 3

• A = 3, B = 9, C = 12

• A = 9, B = 12, C = -3
