Answer
A
Isolate the constant.

Factor 5 out of the variable terms.
C
Isolate the variable x.
D
Add 9 to both sides of the equation.

Explanation

First move the constant term to the right side by adding 4 to both sides: 5x² + 15x = 4. This isolates the constant and prepares the variable terms for completing the square. The next step after that would be to factor 5 out of the variable terms.
