The rule to find the SUM of the roots of a quadratic equation is: -b/a The rule to find the PRODUCT of the roots of a quadratic equation is: c/a We need the sum to be -3 and the product to be 4-4/
If you go through the answer choices: A) a = 1, b = 4, c = - 3 -b/a = -4/1 = -4 This is NOT correct B) a = 1, b = 3, c = 4 -b/a = -3/1 = -3 This is correct c/a = 4/1 = 4 This is also correct
