Quadratic Equations Test

Question No. 1 to 5 are based on the given text. Read the text carefully and answer the questions:
Quadratic equations started around 3000 B.C. with the Babylonians. They were one of the world’s first civilizations, and came up
with some great ideas like agriculture, irrigation and writing. There were many reasons why Babylonians needed to solve
quadratic equations. For example to know what amount of crop you can grow on the square field.
